LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) [1] is one of the popular cluster-based structures, which has been widely proposed in wireless sensor networks. LEACH uses a TDMA ...
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is envisioned as a cluster of tiny power-constrained devices with functions of sensing and communications. Sensors closer to a sink node have a larg...
Light-weight embedded systems are now gaining more popularity due to the recent technological advances in fabrication that have resulted in more powerful tiny processors with grea...
—In this paper we study the effectiveness of two power gating methods – transistor switches and MEMS switches – in reducing the power consumption of a design with a certain t...
—Immediate notification of urgent but rare events and delivery of time sensitive actuation commands appear in many practical wireless sensor and actuator network applications. M...
