Abstract: This paper presents an analytical evaluation of auxiliary tone based MAC scheme that has been proposed before to mitigate the directional antenna utilization problems in wireless ad hoc networks. We conduct a comparison study between two different Markov models for auxiliary tone based MAC scheme. In the current proposed model in addition to the idle, success, and fail states which has been suggested as different nodes’ states during network communications, also ...
