We consider transmission scheduling by medium access control (MAC) protocols for energy limited wireless sensor networks (WSN) in order to maximize the network lifetime. Time-vary...
—Wireless ad hoc networks are seldom characterized by one single performance metric, yet the current literature lacks a flexible framework to assist in characterizing the design...
In this paper, we propose micro-climate sensing as an effective means of enhancing conventional RF-based localization. Our system targets people tracking applications in dynamic i...
—We have recently proposed a novel receiver for Ultra-Wide-band Impulse-Radio communication in bursty applications like Wireless Sensor Networks. The receiver, based on the princ...
While extensive studies have been carried out in the past several years for many sensor applications, they cannot be applied to the network with extremely low and intermittent con...
