This paper proposes a multi-channel MAC protocol with directional antennas (MMAC-DA). Each node pair exchange control packets on the control channel during the control window to determine the beam’s direction and negotiate the data channel. By exploiting multiple channel resources and improving the spatial reuse of wireless channel, MMAC-DA can improve the network performance. Key word: Multi-channel MAC, directional antennas, wireless ad hoc networks. 1
