Performance Evaluation of Directional MAC Protocols for Deafness Problem in Ad Hoc Networks
2007
IPSJ Digital Courier
Several directional MAC protocols for ad hoc networks using directional antennas have been proposed recently. Although directional antennas have great potential such as high spatial reuse and range extension, directional MAC protocols inherently introduce new problems arising from directivity. Deafness is one of the major problems and reduces the performance, caused by a lack of state information from neighbor nodes. This paper presents two directional MAC protocols, DMAC/DA (Directional MAC
