A Wireless Ad hoc Sensor Network (WASN) is an autonomous collection of low cost devices that communicate over wireless links. This devices are often powered by limited energy resources, and it is expensive and sometimes infeasible to recharge or replace them. Hence, energy efficiency is the main design concern for such a network. In literature, several energy-efficient Medium Access Control (MAC)...
Wireless sensor networks are destined to see widespread adoption in such diverse sectors as industrial process control, health care, and home automation. A WSN is normally constructed from large numbers of low-power, inexpensive sensor devices that are densely embedded in the physical environment, operating together in a wireless network. Being energy constrained, the network environment requires...
Shrinking size and increasing deployment density of wireless sensor nodes implies to smaller equipped battery size. This means emerging wireless sensor nodes must compete for efficient energy utilization. MAC protocols play a vital role in energy consumption of sensor node as it controls the radio activities. Customized or open source simulators play an important role to measure the performance effectiveness...
