Energy-Efficient Reservation-Based Medium Access Control Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

<p/> <p>In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), a robust and energy-efficient Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol is required for high energy efficiency in harsh operating conditions, where node and link failures are common. This paper presents the design of a novel MAC protocol for low-pow...
