—In this paper, we study the trade-off between network throughput and fairness in a multi-channel enabled WSN. Traditional approaches attempt to solve the two problems in an isol...
Abstract—Packet collision causes packet loss and wastes resources in wireless networks. It becomes even worse in dense WSNs, due to burst-traffic and congestion around sinks. In...
In a traditional wakeup scheduling, sensor nodes start up numerous times to communicate in a period, thus consuming extra energy due to state transitions (e.g. from the sleep state...
Wireless sensor networks have been widely used in many surveillance applications. Due to the importance of sensor nodes in such applications, certain level of protection needs to b...
A sensor is a battery-operated small computer with an antenna and a sensing board that can sense magnetism, sound, heat, etc. Sensors in a network can use their antennas to communi...
