In this paper, we propose two mechanisms, differentiation by backoff exponent and differentiation by the size of contention window, for IEEE 802.15.4 sensor networks to provide mul...
We give a new distributed algorithm EasyMAC for the slot assignment for media access control (MAC) of nodes in a sensor network. Our algorithm reduces both the number of messages ...
This paper presents a Self-Reorganizing Slot Allocation (SRSA) mechanism for TDMA based Medium Access Control (MAC) in multi-cluster sensor networks. The aim is to provide a MAC l...
A cross-layered slotted ALOHA protocol is proposed and analyzed for distributed estimation in sensor networks. Suppose that the sensors in the network record local measurements of ...
We develop algorithms for finding the minimum energy transmission schedule for duty-cycle and rate constrained wireless sensor nodes transmitting over an interference channel. Sinc...
