MAC Protocols that use Directional Antennnas
1
Directional Antenna
Directional communication
Less Energy in the wrong direction • Better Spatial reuse and less multipath More Energy in the right direction • Longer ranges more robust links Reduce interference to other neighbor nodes increase throughput
Antenna Model
Typically, 2 operation mode
Directional Antenna Type
Switched Antenna : Select One Omni mode / Directional Mode Steerable/Steered Antenna Adaptive Array Antenna 2
A B X Red
nodes cannot communicate presently
Y Omni-Directional Antenna X
Not Possible using Omni
A B Y Directional Antenna
MAC Protocol using Directional Antennas
Each node has only 1 radio transceiver A transceiver
Can tx or rx only one packet at a given time Equipped with M directional antennas
Antennas
Each antenna has non-overlapping conical radiation pattern Every antenna individually or all the antennas can be switched to the active or passive modes • The transceiver used only the antennas in active mode • If all the antennas of the node are active, similar to omni-directional antenna It is assumed that the radio range is the same for all directional antennas of the nodes
MNs do not know direction of the sender and receiver nodes
Make use of RTC/CTS exchange Direction of the sender is identified by the antenna received with max power sender/receiver node tx/rx data packet through the selected directional antennna 3
Directional Busy Tone-based MAC
Adapts the DBTMA for use with directional antennas Assumption: Orientation of sectors of each antenna element remains fixed (does not support MNs)
Omni-directional BT vs Directional BT
Sender: tx RTS in all direction Receiver
Determines the antenna on which RTS is received with max gain Turn on BTr in the direction toward the sender Send back a directional CTS
Sender:
Turn directional BTt to the receiver Tx data packet through the antenna on which the CTS packet was received with max gain Directional BT is not collision-free !!
C X may cause collision 4
D-MAC: Directional MAC
Young-Bae Ko, V. Shankarkumar, N. Vaidya (2000) Assumption: Each node knows about (via GPS)
Location of its neighbors Its own location
MAC protocol similar to 802.11, but on a per-antenna basis
If a node has overheard an RTS or CTS on a particular antenna, then the antenna is blocked for the transmission duration (NAV) But, remaining antennas of the node can be used for Tx
D-MAC-1
Directional RTS (DRTS) / Omni Directional CTS (OCTS) DRTS from E to A may collide with OCTS or ACK from B to A 5
D-MAC (Cont’d)
DMAC-2
DRTS or ORTS / OCTS • Send ORTS if non of antennas are blocked • Send DRTS, otherwise Reduce collision between control packets
After receiving ORTS from node D,
node C would not respond node D: backoff and ReTx
Avoid this situation, introduce Directional wait to-send (DWTS) packet
Carries the expected duration of A B 6
Multichannel MAC Protocols for Data Transmission
7
MMAC: Multichannel MAC
Multiple channels for data Tx
No dedicated control channel Need single transceiver Each node maintains a data structure called Preferable Channel List (PCL) • High preference channel (HIGH): has been selected and is being used by the node in the current beacon interval • Medium preference channel (MID): is free and is not being currently used by neighbor • Lowest preference channel (LOW): already being used by neighbor
ATIM (ad hoc traffic indication msg)
Is used to negotiate for channels during the current beacon interval Exists at the start of every beacon interval ATIM msgs exchange on the default channel Carries the PCL of the transmitting node May be lost due to collision back-off
Higher throughput than IEEE 802.11 when network load is high
8
MCSMA: Multichannel CSMA MAC
Available BW is divided into N channels
A channel BW = BW/N Channels are created by FDMA or CSMA, but not on TDMA (because it requires global time synchronization)
Idle node continuously monitors and marks IDLE channels if TRSS < ST
TRSS: total received signal strength, ST: sensing threshold
CS
If free channel list is empty, waits for any channel to become IDLE, • i.e. wait for LIFS + random back-off period Otherwise, select an IDLE channel (check first the most recently successfully transmitted channel)
Before actual transmission
If the selected channel is idle (TRSS < ST) for at least LIFS period, Tx immediately Otherwise, LIFS + random back-off delay
When N is large or traffic is high, each node tends to reserve a channel
greatly reduce collision

Power Control MAC
10
Energy / Power Conservation
Power Saving
Go to a doze state by Powering off its wireless network interface Ex) DEC Roamabout Radio • • • TX: 5.76 W RX; 2.88 W Idle; 0.35 W A B transmits to A B C B’s transmission is overheard by C which causes unnecessary power consumption
Power Control
Vary Transmit Power suitably to reduce power consumption. 11
Power Saving Schemes
PAMAS: Power Aware Multi-Access protocol with Signaling for Ad Hoc Networks
C. Raghavendra, S. Singh (1998) Based on the MACA with the addition of a separate signaling channel Powering off nodes that are not actively transmitting or receiving.
Issues • • For how long is a node powered off ?
What happens if a neighbor wishes to transmit a packet to a node that has powered itself off ?
Out-of-Band Signaling Channel • • Busy Tone; To exchange Probe Messages to resolve powering off interval. 12
Power Control Schemes
Power Control in the IEEE 802.11: BASIC
RTS/CTS are transmitted using the highest power level (P max ) Data/ACK are transmitted using the minimum power level (P desired ) necessary to communicate
Different Transmission Power can lead to increase collision A B C D
When A is transmitting a packet to B, this transmission may not be sensed by C and D. So, when C and D transmit to each other using a higher power, their transmission will collide with the on-going transmission from A to B
PCM (Power Control MAC)
Fix the shortcomings of the IEEE 802.11’s Power Control 13
BASIC Scheme in IEEE 802.11
P desired = P max /P r
x Rx thresh x c
P r : received power level Rx thresh : min necessary received signal strength
Assumption
attenuation is same in both direction noise level at the nodes is below a predefined threshold value
Drawback
X and Y defer their Tx during EIFS period by overhearing RTS and CTS After EIFS period, X and Y may attempt to Tx collision • • RTS from X may cause collision with ACK RTS from Y may cause collision with DATA
Throughput degradation and higher energy consumption (because of ReTx) than even the IEEE 802.11 without power control
14
PCM: Power Control MAC
Eun-Sun Jung, N. Vaidya (2002)
Based on BASIC scheme
To avoid collision
Source node tx DATA packet at Pmax periodically (every EIFS period) Duration of each such Tx > time required for physical CS
Achieves throughput very close to that of IEEE 802.11 while using much less energy
