Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNS) have become an indispensable tool in this epoch of technological advancements, particularly for progress made in the Internet of things. Wireless sensor nodes are deployed to collect and transmit vital data from the environment to a base station for analysis. Nevertheless, the limited battery power of the sensor nodes is rapidly drained when they stay awake for an extended period. Research has shown that significant sources of energy dissipation of sensor nodes are idle listening, packet collision, control overhead, and overhearing. One optimal solution is employing a low duty cycle mac protocol, particularly the sensor mac (SMAC) protocol. It is essential to have a detailed knowledge of the challenges identified in SMAC and solutions suggested to mitigate these challenges and the future directions. In this paper, we review techniques in SMAC protocols implemented in WSNS. In particular, we provide highlights of recent developments in the schemes used in SMAC for mitigating the challenges in SMAC and present research gaps in SMAC protocol. Finally, we discuss open issues that need to be addressed to advance the design and implementation of SMAC in WSN applications.
