A medium access control (MAC) protocol is proposed that is suitable for non-synchronized ad-hoc networks, and in particular for the energy-constrained underwater acoustic networks...
— Existing work on placing additional relay nodes in wireless sensor networks to improve network connectivity typically assumes homogeneous wireless sensor nodes with an identica...

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...
In wireless sensor networks, it is critical to restrict the network access only to eligible sensor nodes, while messages from outsiders will not be forwarded in the networks. In t...
