RSM: A Broadcast Available Multi-channel MAC Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks
Mingfei Wang, Quansheng Liu, Jinyin Zuo, Yongjun Xu · 2012
Multi-channel technology can reduce the interference and improve the performance. Based on the receiver directed transmission (RDT) multi-channel MAC protocols, we propose the RSM protocol by using split time mechanism to address the multi-channel broadcast problem in RDT protocol. As shown in the simulation experiment results, the RSM protocol can be applied to multi-hop wireless sensor networks.
