Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are developing into a promising solution for many applications, for example in healthcare. In many scenarios, there is some form of node mobility. The medium access control (MAC) mechanisms should support the expected kind of mobility in the network. Mobility is particularly complicating for contention free MAC protocols like TDMA-based protocols, because they dedicate...
Taking advantage of the benefits of modern networking, a growing number of users are exhibiting mobile behavior. As they roam between different network localities, they access the Internet and the Web exploiting both wired and wireless communications and using several heterogeneous devices. Mobile users want to access their subscribed services anywhere, anytime, and want to preserve their currently...
In this paper, we study link properties over dynamic radio channels based on analytical models and simulations. Specifically, channel variability and mobility are investigated through two quantities: effective transmission range and node-pair distance, respectively. We find that the PDF of link lifetime can be approximated by exponential distribution with parameter characterized by the ratio of average...
