Abstract
As wireless sensor networks are applied to various applications such as environment monitoring and disaster sensing system, there are increased needs for wireless communication in underground environment. Since the previous wireless communication technology using electromagnetic wave is not appropriate for the underground environment, a new alternative is required. Recently a magnetic field communication technology has been proposed and standardized as a domestic KS standard. In this paper, we analyze the media access control protocol of the KS standard by an analysis and a simulation study.
