The study shows that implementing MAC. functions should consider real-time protocol re3quirements by dividing MAC functions into sets. We enhance the set of time-critical functions implemented to dedicated hardwere and the set of non-time-critical functions implemented to software run with embedded processor. This heterogeneous system is proposed in consideration of our study results to reduce popwer consumption.展开更多
