“…The ADV-MAC in is helpful to reduce the energy and is used for idle listening while maintaining the throughput and latency [59]. It offers synchronization during transmission [60], [61] Banerjee et al reported in [62] that the main cause of the standard's low data rate and dependability is the unneeded packet drops, which occur during data transmission as a result of beacon superframe broadcasting. There is not enough time available for data transmission throughout the super-frame.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) applications such as smart grids, smart agriculture, smart cities, and e-healthcare are popular nowadays. Generally, IoT end devices are extremely sensitive to the utilization of energy. The medium access control (MAC) layer is responsible for coordination and access of the IoT devices. It is essential to design an efficient MAC protocol for achieving high throughput in IoT. Duty cycling is a fundamental process in wireless networks and also an energy-saving necessity if nodes are required to operate for more than a few days. Numerous MAC protocols along with different objectives have been proposed for the IoT. However, to the best of our knowledge, only limited work has been performed dedicated to covering MAC and radio duty cycling (RDC). Therefore, in this study, we propose a systematic cataloging system and use if to organize the most important MAC and RDC proposals. In this catalog, each protocol has been categorized into main ideas, advantages, applications, limitations, innovative features, and potential future improvements. Our critical analysis is different from previous research studies, as we have fully covered all recent studies in this domain. We discuss challenges and future research directions.

“…Although the above discussed WSN-MAC protocols are providing higher energy efficiency, the standalone application of these protocols is not found suitable for the applications which demand high concurrent access, different quality of service (QoS) for sensor nodes, the existence of BSs to enable network assistance for improving device energy efficiency. This evokes the idea to explore other novel MAC solutions [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] which combines the benefits of MAC protocols with clustering schemes for future WSN applications in IoT scenario.…”

“…In [13], a scalable hybrid MAC protocol has been proposed, where each communications frame is partitioned into contention and data transmission periods to reduce energy consumption by restricting the probability of collisions in data transmission period. The energy-efficient scheduling mechanism for machine nodes was investigated in [14] for cellular users together with LTE networks, and an energy-efficient MAC solution for direct communications between machine nodes and the BS to tackles massive concurrent access over a cellular network is also presented. In [15], the authors proposed a new MAC protocol for low power sensor nodes to achieve desired reliability and data rate requirements in a 5G wireless network for IoT systems.…”

Recent advancement in microelectronics and sensor devices have led to the development of a new family of networks called Internet of things (IoT). One of the challenges of IoT is the integration of autonomous and smart devices with multiple constraints specific to the wireless sensor network (WSN) environment. Among these constraints, the most important constraint is the energy efficiency of medium access control (MAC) protocol. To solve this problem, we propose an improved protocol called clustering based load adaptive MAC (CLA-MAC) for WSNs in IoT scenario, which involves mainly traffic load balancing within each cluster to provide a tuneable trade-off between energy consumption, delay, and throughput. The proposed solution makes the MAC protocol more energy efficient by reducing competition between sensor nodes with the adoption of clustering scheme and traffic distribution, which can significantly reduce the probability of collision and idle listening. Simulation results indicate that the proposed approach performs better compared with load adaptive MAC (LA-MAC) protocol in typical IoT scenario.Index Terms: Internet of Things, Wireless sensor networks, Medium access control, Energy efficiency and clustering.

“…Inspired by Bianchi's seminal Markov model of CSMA/CA mechanism [8], the authors of [9] and [10] dealt with the average access delay analysis of the CSMA/CA mechanisms in saturation traffic scenarios. Considering the unsaturated traffic, the authors of [11] put forward an extended Markov model which added a state to abstract unsaturated situations, and analyzed the average access delay performance. The authors of [12] analyzed the delay of user datagram protocol (UDP) traffic jointly con-sidering the transmission control protocol (TCP) congestion control mechanisms.…”

Owing to the distributed features and flexibility, carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) mechanisms have been widely adopted in wireless networks. Considering energy consumption, we devote to exploring an energy efficient carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (EE-CSMA/CA) mechanism. The access delay and delay jitter are two of most important quality of service (QoS) metrics. EE-CSMA/CA inevitably experiences the tortures bred from its delay and delay jitter performance, because its frame structure with inactive period brings delay. In this paper, we aim to analyze the access delay and delay jitter of packets for the CSMA/CA with inactive period under the unsaturated conditions. Based on the Markov theory, we model the mechanism of EE-CSMA/CA as a four-dimensional Markov chain, and the fourth variable of Markov chain differentiates the active period and the inactive period of EE-CSMA/CA. Then, deriving in probability generation domain, we get the probability distribution of service time and obtain the access delay. Finally, the queue in a node is decoupled, and two queues with different states of empty and non-empty are configured logically, which helps to enable the complex analysis of delay jitter. Based on the whole probability analysis, the probability distribution of delay jitter is obtained. We show that the active ratio (active time over whole frame time) affects the access delay and delay jitter. When the active ratio is constant, the duration of active period has less effect on the access delay while it deteriorates delay jitter performance.
