Abstract
In the construction of the wireless sensor network; MAC protocols are considered as a foremost element of IoT based devices that are used for data transmission and greater scalability with simple executions. Furthermore, most of the researches on WSN conduct directional antenna to provide substantial progresses in communication. However, numerous types of problems such as deafness, deadlock, and head of line blocking problems irrespective of a number of channels are introducing inherently in directional MAC protocols. Some proposed asynchronous multichannel MAC protocol is based on RIT or RI mechanisms that escape those prevalent problems. Using a multichannel directional MAC with RP is proposed in this article that referred to as Receiver Pivotal DMAC (RP-DMAC). We propose RP-DMAC as a state-of-the-art protocol for IoT based WSN to separate deafness and other problem by using directional RTR (Ready to Receive) packet, data channel, and guard band. As like most of the DMAC protocols, in default mode, our RP-DMAC is sender-initiated. When deafness problem is recognized then as our RP protocol manner; nodes will initiate with DRTR negotiation in its unused sector expending through guard band to received data from desire sender. To solve the deadlock and packet loss, our proposed RP protocol performs better results than DA-MAC and circular RTR MAC in terms of packet drop ratio, overhead, and throughput.
