Abstract:
Wireless sensor networks have been extensively studied during the past ten years. In order to monitor environmental or physical conditions, sensor networks are groupings of autonomous sensors that are distributed spatially. These sensors generate information on the network-wide frequency of an occurrence. A well-structured MAC protocol is necessary for a sensor network in order to increase reliability, extend lifetime, and reduce latency and collision. Numerous multichannel MAC techniques outperform single channel protocols. The effectiveness of strength and throughput is increased by the MAC layer's coordination of transmission among users who share a spectrum. In this essay, we'll list and describe a number of protocols along with their characteristics.
