Abstract :
This paper presents a MAC (medium access control) layer protocol GRAPO (optimized group randomly addressed polling) for wireless (local area) data network. GRAPO statically optimizes the original version of GRAP proposed by Kwang-Cheng Chen (1992) to deliver smooth convergence and better throughput/delay performance. It is a good candidate of the MAC protocol for wireless LANs and other wireless network applications
