S-MAC is a MAC (Medium Access Control) protocol as specialized for the wireless sensor network in order to sacrifice transmission delay and extend the working life of the whole sen...
Due to the long propagation delay and high error rate of acoustic channels, it is very challenging to provide reliable data transfer for time-critical applications in an energy-ef...
: Clustering provides an effective mechanism for energy-efficient data delivery in wireless sensor networks. To reduce communication cost, most clustering algorithms rely on a sens...
We consider the problem of inter-cluster routing between cluster heads via intermediate sensor nodes in a hierarchical sensor network. Sensor nodes having limited and unreplenishab...
Energy management remains a critical problem in wireless networks since battery technology cannot keep up with rising communication expectations. Current approaches to energy cons...
