Popis: Wireless sensor networks have been widely considered as one of the most important technologies that promises wide range of applications in the field of medical, military, environment, home, agriculture, etc. A variety of Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols have been proposed for wireless sensor networks. This paper presents the comparative analysis of two MAC protocols–RI-MAC, receiver initiated asynchronous duty cycle MAC protocol which is a contention based protocol and ATMA, advertisement-based TDMA MAC protocol. The two MAC protocols are analyzed using four performance parameters such as end to end delay, throughput, packet delivery ratio and energy consumption.
