An adjustable Power Control Protocol in High Load Ad Hoc Wireless Networks

In the present day, Ad Hoc wireless networks are quite convenient in a local area. But hidden terminal problems and exposed terminal problems exits in Ad Hoc networks. So how to avoid these problems and add channel bandwidth utilization efficiently in MAC (Medium Access Control) layer is a very critical topic. A number of MAC protocols have been presented to overcome these drawbacks, such as RTS / CTS ¡V based and busy tone ¡V based protocol.
In this paper, we proposed a dynamic power control scheme, Adjustable Power Control Protocol (APC). APC is based on the concept of power level with broadcasted message. The basic idea is sender should not interfere with other hosts¡¦ going transmissions. Sender would use a suitable power level to send its data so as to overcome above problems. Our simulations show that the channel utilizations of APC is indeed increased in the same time.
