—Most of geographic routing approaches in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks do not take into consideration the medium access control (MAC) and physical layers when designing a ...
Abstract. This paper introduces Crankshaft, a MAC protocol specifically targeted at dense wireless sensor networks. Crankshaft employs node synchronisation and offset wake-up sched...
Abstract--We present a new scheme to reduce the end-toend routing delay in the mission-critical applications of the wireless sensor networks (WSNs) under the duty cycle model. Whil...
A large number of the MAC protocols proposed for establishing wireless sensor networks are based on the 802.11 standard. The trade-off in these protocols is the control packet ov...
—Energy-efficiency is a central challenge in sensor networks, and the radio is a major contributor to overall energy node consumption. Current energy-efficient MAC protocols fo...
