In this paper, we consider a wireless sensor network (WSN) where packets are forwarded to a central collector node (the sink). As all network traffic converges to this point, congestion builds up. We deal with this problem by assuming that the nodes around the sink are allowed to use a different, more efficient protocol for advancing data, namely a method designed to yield more throughput and reduce...
In this paper we propose and analyze ALBA, an original packet forwarding protocol for ad hoc and sensor networks. ALBA follows an integrated approach that combines geographic routing and medium access control (MAC), exploiting the knowledge of node positions in order to achieve energy-efficient data forwarding. The scenario we consider is very critical for medium-high traffic, as contentions for channel...
