a carrier sense multiple access
with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) based
MAC protocol, called nanoMAC, suitable for
low bit-rate, low-power wireless devices with
high efficiency
X-MAC, a low power MAC
protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Standard
MAC protocols developed for duty-cycled WSNs such as
BMAC, which is the default MAC protocol for TinyOS, employ
an extended preamble and preamble sampling.
