Summary: 
We propose adaptive variable-rate constant-power scheme for ad hoc wireless networks, employing the modification of Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) protocol. Potential improvements in throughput and back-off probability are presented for different system parameters.
