Optimal Beaconing for 60 GHz Millimeter Wave

This paper addresses optimal beacon fragmentation schemes for high-performance MAC in 60 GHz millimeter wave (mmWave) networks. The proposed optimal beacon scheme can be classified into two methods, i.e., differentiated and fragmentized beaconing. Differentiated and fragmentized beaconing schemes are for directional and omni-directional data transmission. By the result of performance evaluation, the novelty of the proposed schemes is verified.
