Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this paper, we propose the isochronous media access control (I-MAC) processor by cross layer design. The I-MAC can be simplified because all nodes are synchronized and predict their operations. And then, the time synchronization system is implemented in physical layer. Hence, a simple processor for the I-MAC can be implemented as dedicated hardware. As well, the power management module (PMM) controls the power supplies of the components, based on the I-MAC state transition of I-MAC processor. The proposal processor achieves a power of 10.93uW. The chip area is 200 x 200 um^2 in a 180-nm CMOS process.
