What is Deafness: A MAC Problem in Ad Hoc Networks When Using Directional Antennas about?

Deafness is caused when a transmitter fails to communicate to its intended receiver, because the receiver is beamformed towards a direction away from the transmitter. Existing CSMA / CA protocols rely on the assumption that congestion is the predominant cause of communication failure. An appropriate directional MAC protocol needs to classify the actual cause of failure, and react accordingly.
