Recently, ad-hoc networks have obtained a growing interest due to their advantages in many practical applications. One of the most critical points is the definition of an efficient medium access control (MAC) protocol that allows the transmission of packets generated by a node and routing of packets arriving from other nodes.

Abstract
Recently, ad-hoc networks have obtained a growing interest due to their advantages in many practical applications. One of the most critical points is the definition of an efficient medium access control (MAC) protocol that allows the transmission of packets generated by a node and routing of packets arriving from other nodes. This paper deals with a MAC technique based on code division multiple access (CDMA) scheme that adapts the used spreading factor to the network congestion in order to minimize the energy consumption and maximize the network throughput.File in questo prodotto:
