Wireless sensor networks consist of sensor nodes which are expected to be battery-powered and are hard to replace or recharge. Thus, reducing the energy consumption of sensor nodes...
Network congestion occurs when offered traffic load exceeds available capacity at any point in a network. In wireless sensor networks, congestion causes overall channel quality t...
— Recent years have seen tremendous growth in the deployment of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). An important design issue in such networks is that of distributed scheduling...
— In this paper, we propose a new dual radio medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor networks. Our MAC protocol design combines the advantages of low and high fr...
: Mobility in wireless sensor networks poses unique challenges to the medium access control (MAC) protocol design. Previous MAC protocols for sensor networks assume static sensor n...
