Reducing the time the radio is on in wireless devices results in lower power consumption, so sending the same data in fewer bytes can greatly extend the lifetime of a network. In this paper, we explore the use of protocol-agnostic packet compression, a technique orthogonal to current explicit compaction techniques. Because it functions as a transparent layer inside a communication stack and makes...
Both research and practice have revealed that sensor devices running the 802.15.4 on their MAC layer may be competing for wireless communication on the 2.4 GHz ISM band with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other proprietary devices. Building upon a SunSPOT development platform, we evaluate the impact of channel hopping on interference mitigation in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and propose a channel hopping model that...
IEEE 802.15.4 standard provides a viable MAC and PHY specification for wireless sensor networks. Performance evaluation of these networks has been reported in literature. Previous works focus largely on analyzing the CSMA/CA traffic and frame delay due to Guaranteed Time Slots (GTS) allocations. In this work, we propose a analytical model to understand and characterize the performance of GTS traffic...
Industrial sensing, monitoring and automation offer a lucrative application domain for networking and communications. Wired sensor networks have traditionally been used for these applications because such networks adequately meet two vital requirements, i.e., low latency and high reliability, needed for an industrial deployment. Wired sensor networks, however, are not very cost effective due to higher...
