A method for managing states by a Media Access Control (MAC) layer in a wireless network is disclosed. The method includes determining next occurable physical interrupts for each of the states; configuring a link of the states according to the determination result; transitioning to a state to be linked next if a physical interrupt occurs in each state; and transitioning to an initial state if an timer interrupt occurs in each state. The MAC layer transitions to the initial state if a physical interrupt occurs in a last state among the linked states. The physical interrupt occurs in association with a physical event, and the timer interrupt occurs in association with a timer event.
