  Abstract

In this paper, we propose McMAC protocol for wireless sensor networks like ZigBee with single radio interface. The proposed scheme is designed to improve performance by transmitting packets through multi-channel. Multi-channel can be used by changing channel on single radio interface to prevent interference. McMAC uses the superframe structure which has two parts: an active part and a sleeping part. During the sleeping part, a node turns off its radio to preserve energy. During the active part, it can communicate with its neighbors and send any messages queued during the sleeping part. We propose the association procedure which constructs a cluster-tree structural network. We also analysis the condition that multi-channel can be used on. It's performance is evaluated by simulation.
