TMMAC: An Energy Efficient Multi-Channel MAC Protocol for Ad Hoc Networks Jingbin Zhang†, Gang Zhou†, Chengdu Huang‡, Sang H. Son†, John A. Stankovic† †Department of Computer Science, University of Virginia ‡Department of Computer Science, University of Illinois University of Virginia
Motivation • TMMAC: A TDMA based multi-channel MAC protocol using a single half duplex radio transceiver. • Why Multi-channel? • Increase the bandwidth • Most IEEE 802.11 devices can switch channels dynamically. • Why a single radio transceiver? • Using multiple radio transceivers increases both the cost and energy consumption • Most IEEE 802.11 devices use a single half-duplex radio transceiver • Why TDMA? • Increase the life time of the mobile devices • Improve the throughput University of Virginia
Contribution • Novel multi-channel MAC • Energy efficient: 74% less per packet energy • High throughput: 113% higher throughput • Supporting broadcast efficiently. • Accurate analytical model. • Dynamic ATIM window adjustment scheme. University of Virginia
Outline • State of the Art • TMMAC Design • Analytical Model • Dynamic ATIM Window Adjustment • Performance Evaluation • Conclusion University of Virginia
State of the Art (1) • Special hardware support: • Multiple radio transceivers: [Wu et al. 2000] [Raniwala et al. 2005] [Adya et al. 2004] • Busy tone: [Deng et al. 1998] • FHSS: [Tang et al. 1999] [Tyamaloukas et al. 2000] University of Virginia
State of the Art (2) • Single radio transceiver: • Frequency negotiation: [So et al. 2004] [Fitzek et al. 2003] [Li et al. 2003] [Jain et al. 2001]… • Random number generators: [Bahl et al. 2004]: • MMAC [So et al. 2004] • Time synchronization • Beacon interval: ATIM window + Communication window • ATIM window: Frequency negotiation • Communication window: Data transmission 802.11 DCF University of Virginia
TMMAC Design: Overview • Similar to 802.11 PSM & MMAC: • Time synchronization, Beacon interval (ATIM window + Communication window) • Different from MMAC: • Communication window is divided into time slots • Both the frequency and the time are negotiated in the ATIM window • ATIM window is dynamically adjusted University of Virginia
TMMAC Design: Example (1) • Assumption: Two channels; The communication window contains 5 time slots At the start of an ATIM window Suppose node B has two packets to be sent to node C in this beacon interval.

Analytical Model • Analyze the saturation throughput of TMMAC in wireless LANs. • Built upon [Bianchi 2000], which is used to analyze the saturated throughput of 802.11. • Validated through simulations in GloMoSim. University of Virginia
Impact of Time Synchronization Error 2% at maximum 18% to 31% University of Virginia
Motivation • There is no fixed optimal ATIM window size when the network is saturated. • A smaller ATIM window is preferred when the network is not saturated. • The dynamic ATIM window scheme used in 802.11 PSM is not applicable. [Jung et al. 2002] Dynamic ATIM Window Adjustment University of Virginia
Rules for Dynamic ATIM Window Adjustment (1) • A finite set of ATIM window sizes are used: {ATIM1, …, ATIMi, ATIMi+1, …, ATIMm} and ATIMi+1-ATIMi=lslot • The default channel is never used for data communication in the time slots before ATIMm. • The ATIM window size for the next beacon interval is piggybacked in the ATIM control packets. • Node A wants to send the packet to node B • A knows B’s ATIM window size • A does not know B’s ATIM window size University of Virginia Dynamic ATIM Window Adjustment
Rules for Dynamic ATIM Window Adjustment (2) • Decide whether the network is saturated. • If the network is saturated • If the communication window is fully used decrease the ATIM window size by one level • If not Increase the ATIM window size by one level • If the network is not saturated, decrease the ATIM window size by one level >? Saturation threshold University of Virginia Dynamic ATIM Window Adjustment
