“…However, as the angular resolution increases, a lower number of nodes might interfere with a third node when transmitting and the communications become really point-to-point. This effect is more evident in the case of directive antennas with a number of possible angular sector greater than four as for lower values a sort of spatial blindness is always present 8 .…”

Abstract-This paper deal with a novel MAC layer protocol, namely Directive Synchronous Transmission Asynchronous Reception (D-STAR) able to logically synchronize a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) by managing both sleep/active states together with integrating directional antennas within the communications framework, according to a cross-layer design. D-STAR protocol has been characterized in terms of functional characteristics and the overall performance is presented, in terms of network lifetime gain, set-up latency and collision probability. It is shown a remarkable gain with respect to the basic approach endowed with omnidirectional antennas without increasing the signaling overhead nor affecting the set up latency, but achieving energy consumption reduction.

a b s t r a c tIn this paper, the simulated performance of a number of differentiated services traffic conditioners is studied under a range of synthetic traffic conditions. The traffic conditioners are compared using two performance measures which are defined and justified in the paper.In the initial simulation the traffic conditioner performance differed in one measure but not the other. Further experimentation showed that one could get all the conditioners to have similar performance by setting carefully the configuration parameters of the conditioners.
