Abstract— The fluctuations of the price of crude oil is pushing the oil companies to increase the investments in seismic exploration of new oil and gas reservoir. Seismic explor...
In this paper we provide a method to analytically compute the energy saving provided by the use of transmission power control (TPC) at the MAC layer in wireless sensor networks (W...
—Recently, wireless sensor networks have been proposed for assisted living and residential monitoring. In such networks, physiological sensors are used to monitor vital signs e.g...
Abstract-- The technological advances in Micro ElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) and wireless communications have enabled the realization of wireless sensor networks (WSN) comprised...
Existing slotted channel access schemes in wireless networks assume that slot boundaries at all nodes are synchronized. In practice, relative clock drifts among nodes cause slot mi...
