Wireless sensor networks typically conserve energy by following a periodic wakeup-sleep schedule: nodes minimize idle time and spend most of their time in a low power sleep state. ...
We propose several localized sensor area coverage protocols, for arbitrary ratio of sensing and transmission radii. Sensors are assumed to be time synchronized, and active sensors...

Abstract. In this paper, we propose a new medium access control protocol for wireless sensor networks, named LE-MAC (Latency and Energy aware MAC) that aims to minimize data delive...
This paper investigates the energy cost of control packets in schedule-based medium access control protocols in wireless sensor networks. Control packets can be useful not only to ...
In the area of wireless sensor networks, achieving minimum energy consumption is a very important research issue. A number of energy efficient protocols have been proposed, mostly ...
