Abstract-- Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require energyef cient protocols to improve the network lifetime. In this work, we adopt a cross-layer strategy that considers routing an...
Energy constraints in a wireless sensor network are crucial issues criticallyaffectingthe network lifetime and connectivity. To realize true energysavingin a wireless environment,t...
—Most of geographic routing approaches in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks do not take into consideration the medium access control (MAC) and physical layers when designing a ...
Abstract. This paper introduces Crankshaft, a MAC protocol specifically targeted at dense wireless sensor networks. Crankshaft employs node synchronisation and offset wake-up sched...
