Abstract(in English) In gas and water utilities, the spread of ultra-low-power wireless smart utility networks (SUN) has been predicted. This report proposes a novel MAC protocol (F-RIT) complied with the RIT in IEEE 802.15.4e standards to implement the wireless SUN in the gas and water utilities effectively. The proposed protocol is compared with CSL in IEEE 802.15.4e in terms of power consumption and communication link establishment success rate. The evaluation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method under the condition of high terminal density and highly communication link establishment requests.
