On Performance of Event-to-Sink Transport in Transmit-Only Sensor Networks
We consider a hybrid wireless sensor network with regular and transmit-only sensors. The transmit-only sensors do not have receiver circuit, hence are cheaper and less energy consu...

Funneling-MAC: a localized, sink-oriented MAC for boosting fidelity in sensor networks
Sensor networks exhibit a unique funneling effect which is a product of the distinctive many-to-one, hop-by-hop traffic pattern found in sensor networks, and results in a signific...
