Efficient MAC protocols using directional antennas for ad hoc networks
Use of directional antennas in wireless networks has been widely studied in recent years. Since the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol of the IEEE 802.11 standard is designed for the use of omnidirectional antennas, it cannot work properly when directional antennas are used. To maximize the system...
