A Design of MAC Layer DCF Protocol for IEEE 802.11 Network Based on FPGA

How to make communication more efficient and reduce energy consumption in wireless network is an important issue to be considered in the design of MAC protocol. When a large number of nodes share a wireless channel for data transmission, and the user is intermittent work, the need to use the MAC protocol in the random multiple access technology (DCF). In this paper, a design of MAC protocol based on FPGA is proposed, which uses the hardware circuit description language HDL Verilog and the circuit principle diagram input method to design the simulation.
