  2. Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance for Wireless

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_Access_with...

    Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance for Wireless (MACAW) [1] is a slotted medium access control (MAC) protocol widely used in ad hoc networks. [2] Furthermore, it is the foundation of many other MAC protocols used in wireless sensor networks (WSN). [2] The IEEE 802.11 RTS/CTS mechanism is adopted from this protocol.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11s

    IEEE 802.11s is a wireless local area network (WLAN) standard and an IEEE 802.11 amendment for mesh networking, defining how wireless devices can interconnect to create a wireless LAN mesh network, which may be used for relatively fixed (not mobile) topologies and wireless ad hoc networks. The IEEE 802.11s task group drew upon volunteers from ...

    Wi-Fi (/ ˈ w aɪ f aɪ /) [1] [a] is a family of wireless network protocols based on the IEEE 802.11 family of standards, which are commonly used for local area networking of devices and Internet access, allowing nearby digital devices to exchange data by radio waves.

  6. Medium access control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium_access_control

    In IEEE 802 LAN/MAN standards, the medium access control (MAC), also called media access control, is the layer that controls the hardware responsible for interaction with the wired (electrical or optical) or wireless transmission medium. The MAC sublayer and the logical link control (LLC) sublayer together make up the data link layer.
