Abstract Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are designed for data gathering and processing, with particular requirements: low hardware complexity, low energy consumption, special traff...
—Data collection is one of the major traffic pattern in wireless sensor networks, which requires regular source nodes to send data packets to a common sink node with limited end...
Energy saving is a paramount concern in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A strategy for energy saving is to cleverly manage the duty cycle of sensors, by dynamically activating di...
A strategy for energy saving in wireless sensor networks is to manage the duty cycle of sensors, by dynamically selecting a different set of nodes to be active in every moment. We ...
—Sensor network MAC protocols usually employ periodic sleep and wakeup, achieving low duty-cycle to save energy and to increase the lifetime of battery-powered sensor devices. Ho...
