MAC protocols employ identical schedules for both unicast and broadcast packet transmissions, and modify their ―unicast schedule‖ to work with broadcast packets. For instance, IEEE 802.11 cannot perform an RTS / CTS handshake for broadcast packets, and thus only utilizes CSMA for broadcast packets, regardless of the impact on life or contention. The MAC schedule should be chosen to maximize the life of the network, which includes reducing contention. MAC schedule to node and network conditions to improve performance under a wide range of conditions and for both unicast and broadcast packets the ―transmit / receive schedule‖ to synchronize nodes on a slowly changing path so that throughput and delay are further reduced, at no cost of overhead in most cases. the transmit / receive schedule to automatically synchronize the nodes can reduce packet delivery delays, providing an efficiency and throughput will increases. The Route-MAC (R-MAC) or SP-MAC-D schedules perform differently depending on the network scenario and application requirements. R-MAC attempts to pick the MAC schedule that yields the best operating points by adapting the MAC schedule, based on a look-up table. Thus, this research work must populate this adaptation table and find the appropriate switching thresholds. As discussed next, this research work begin this evaluation with the simulation of an analytical model, and verify it with a Matlab implementation.
