Brain-computer interface (BCI) can permit individuals to use their thoughts as the sole means to control objects such as smart homes and robots. While BCI is a promising interdisciplinary tool, researchers are confronting network lifetime as an obstacle to further development. Furthermore, the medium access control (MAC) protocol is the bottleneck of the network reliability. There are many standards for MAC protocols that can be utilized for productive and dependable transmission by altering the control parameters. Modifying these parameters is another source of concern due to the scarcity in knowledge about its effect. In addition, there is no instrument accessible to receive and actualize these parameters on transmitters embedded inside the cerebrum. In this article, we give the transmission instrument to both ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) radio frequency identification (RFID) and ultra-wideband (UWB) signals for multiple transmitters and ultrasonic technology mimicking the neural dusts by modifying the superframe structure. In this article, a hybrid MAC protocol is proposed, and the results show that the traffic received can be increased by 700% for UHF-RFID and more than 100% for UWB and ultrasonic technology. Comparative results for wireless channel MAC protocols using these different transmission techniques are discussed in terms of network delay, data dropped, traffic sent, and traffic received.

用于脑机接口应用的混合 MAC 协议


脑机接口（BCI）可以允许个人使用他们的思想作为控制智能家居和机器人等物体的唯一手段。虽然 BCI 是一种很有前途的跨学科工具，但研究人员正将网络生命周期视为进一步发展的障碍。此外，媒体访问控制(MAC)协议是网络可靠性的瓶颈。 MAC 协议有许多标准，可通过更改控制参数来实现高效且可靠的传输。由于对其影响知之甚少，修改这些参数是另一个令人担忧的问题。此外，没有任何仪器可以在嵌入大脑内的发射器上接收和实现这些参数。在本文中，我们通过修改超帧结构，为传输仪器提供了用于多个发射器的超高频（UHF）射频识别（RFID）和超宽带（UWB）信号以及模仿神经尘埃的超声波技术。本文提出了一种混合MAC协议，结果表明对于UHF-RFID接收的流量可以增加700%，对于UWB和超声波技术可以增加100%以上。从网络延迟、数据丢失、发送的流量和接收的流量方面讨论了使用这些不同传输技术的无线信道 MAC 协议的比较结果。
