WTC 2002, 18th World Telecommunications Congress, 22-27 September 2002, Paris, France
A new medium access protocol for mobile ad hoc networks, called CROMA is proposed. CROMA is collision-free and receiver-oriented. It operates in a slotted environment in a dynamic and distributed way. In this protocol, receivers act as local base-stations and can manage one or several communications on a single slot. Thus, sophisticated functions are allowed at higher layers. Moreover, the hidden terminal as well as the exposed terminal problems are handled by CROMA. A theoretical analysis and extensive simulations show that CROMA can reach very high throughput provided that senders reserve receiver resources for several slots.
