Concurrent MAC protocols can improve channel usage of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), and provide a high-performance infrastructure for data intensive applications. Most of the existing concurrent MAC protocols are based on proactively constructed physical interference models, i.e., PRR-SINR models (PSM). However, it incurs relatively high bandwidth and energy overheads to construct PSM for WSNs...
Motivated by the highly dynamic topology in wireless sensor networks with asynchronous duty cycle, and its impact on reliable data delivery, we propose a light-weight opportunistic forwarding (LWOF) scheme. Differing from other recently proposed schemes, LWOF neither employs historical network information nor a contention process to select a forwarder prior to data transmission. It takes advantage...
In a realistic sensor network, in particular with a non-uniform deployment, sensor nodes inevitably have varying workloads. This causes a natural problem that some sensor nodes are subject to excessive power consumption and thus become hot. These hot nodes deplete much earlier resulting in system performance degradation. This paper proposes a systematic approach to design a hotness-aware sensor network...
