This work proposes the Receiver-based Medium Access Control (Rb-MAC) protocol to be used in cross-layer designs for the receiver-based communication.These models are appropriated for Wireless Sensor Networks dealwith energy constrains and dynamic topology. Simulation results reveal thatusing Rb-MAC, the evaluated receiver-based model increases the delivery ratio,reduces the number of transmissions and energy consumption when comparedwith a sender-based model. Moreover, Rb-MAC allows a dynamic duty cycleand maintains the delivery ratio for reduced duty cycle values.
