Hi,

is it possible to make each node decide whether it ought to turn itself on
during the period of the listen cycle for DATA packets based on a state
variable? In other words, after the SYNC period of the listen cycle, each node
will have to check the value of a state variable before deciding whether to go
to sleep for the rest of the duty cycle or to listen for RTS/DATA packets. If it
is possible, which parts of the smac code in ns-2 do I have to alter? Thank you!


Kind Regards,
Eric
