Medium access control protocol for centralized wireless network communication management

A system for providing data transmissions in a network having a master device and a plurality of slave devices using a Medium Access Protocol comprising:

• instructions for directing a processing unit in said master device to:
• transmit an ALOHA message to said plurality of slave devices,
• receive a data link request message from a one of said plurality of slave devices acting as a source slave device requesting a data transmission to a second of said plurality of device acting as a target slave device,
• verify an on-line state of said source slave device in response to receiving said data link request,
• verify a on-line state of said target slave device responsive to receiving said data link message,
• transmit a service link request to said target slave device from said master device in response to a verification said target slave device is in an on-line state,
• receive an acknowledgement message from said target slave device in said master device in response to said service request link,
• assign a data slot to said source device in response to a verification said source device is in an on-line state and receiving said acknowledgement message,
• transmit said data slot to said source slave device in response to assigning said data slot, and
• update a master table indicating said source slave device is in an engaged state responsive to said assigning of said data slot;
• and
• a media readable by said processing unit in said master device for storing said instructions.
