Abstract— Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) promise finegrain monitoring in a wide variety of applications, which require dense sensor nodes deployment. Due to high density of nod...
—We present a novel approach for minimizing the energy consumption of medium access control (MAC) protocols developed for duty-cycled wireless sensor networks (WSN) for the unslo...
