Making Sensornet MAC Protocols Robust against Interference
Radio interference may lead to packet losses, thus negatively affecting the performance of sensornet applications. In this paper, we experimentally assess the impact of external i...

On Performance of Event-to-Sink Transport in Transmit-Only Sensor Networks
We consider a hybrid wireless sensor network with regular and transmit-only sensors. The transmit-only sensors do not have receiver circuit, hence are cheaper and less energy consu...
