ABSTRACT:
A system and method for providing a MAC protocol that optimizes communication within a wireless network. Specifically, the system and method operates with Mobile Terminals, Fixed References and at least one Main Control, wherein a method defines the sequence of messages exchanged between each Mobile Terminals, Fixed Reference and the Main Control for assuring the data is optimally communicated within the network.
