WiseMAC is a medium access control protocol designed for the WiseNET™ wireless sensor network. It based on CSMA and uses preamble sampling technique to minimize power consumed when listening an idle medium. A unique feature of this exploit knowledge schedule its direct neighbors in order use wake-up minimized size. This scheme allows not only reduce transmit receive consumption, but also brings drastic reduction energy wasted due overhearing. Backoff reservation schemes have been selected provide fairness collision avoidance. requires no set-up signaling, network-wide time synchronization adaptive traffic load. provides ultra-low average consumption low conditions high efficiency conditions.
