LE-WiMARK: An intelligent power-efficient ad hoc MAC protocol with busy tone and power control

Ad hoc networks have been known to be extremely vulnerable to the hidden and exposed terminal problems. To effectively address this problem a power-save MAC layer protocol, Low Energy Wireless Medium Access through Record Keeping(LE-WiMARK), is being proposed, combining the busy tone, the table-driven, power-control and power-save protocols.
