随着移动自组网在航空通信中应用研究的不断深入和拓展,出现了全新的研究领域—航空自组网。由于航空自组网的特殊性,使得其媒体接入控制(MAC)协议与传统的自组网有很大的区别。对航空自组网发展现状进行了介绍,分析了当前主要的MAC协议的技术特点,并进一步对MAC协议的研究方法做出总结。
With deepening research and development of mobile Ad Hoc network(MANET)in aeronautical communications,which gives birth to a new research field,aeronautical Ad Hoc network(AANET).Because of specifieness of AANET,the MAC protocols are very different from traditional Ad Hoc network.The developing status of AANET is introduced,technical characteristics of current main MAC protocols are analyzed,and research method of MAC protocols are summarized furtherly.
