Abstract This study proposes a new multiple access control protocol named distributed synchronous reservation multiple access control protocol, in which the hidden and exposed terminal problems are solved, and the quality of service (QoS) requirements for real-time traffic are guaranteed. The protocol is founded on time division multiplex address and a different type of traffic is assigned to different priority, according to which a node should compete for and reserve the free slots in a different method. Moreover, there is a reservation acknowledgement process before data transmit in each reserved slot, so that the intruded terminal problem is solved. The throughput and average packets drop probability of this protocol are analyzed and simulated in a fully connected network, the results of which indicate that this protocol is efficient enough to support the real-time traffic, and it is more suitable to MANETs.
