An important problem in mobile ad-hoc wireless sensor networks is the localization of individual nodes, i.e., each node’s awareness of its position relative to the network. In t...
We propose a distributed algorithm to construct a balanced communication tree that serves in gathering data from the network nodes to a sink. Our algorithm constructs a near-optim...
—The IEEE 802.15.4 standard has no provisions for rate sensitive applications because of its ability to operate in pure CSMA/CA or TDMA modes. Some operating scenarios for rate-s...
