Sensor network MAC protocols are typically configured for an intended deployment scenario once and for all at compile time. This approach, however, leads to suboptimal performance...

We consider transmission scheduling by medium access control (MAC) protocols for energy limited wireless sensor networks (WSN) in order to maximize the network lifetime. Time-vary...
—Wireless Ad hoc networks represent a powerful telecommunication infrastructure that is being exploited for enabling general wireless networking connectivity for a variety of sig...
In this paper we provide a method to analytically compute the energy saving provided by the use of transmission power control (TPC) at the MAC layer in wireless sensor networks (W...
— In sensor networks, MAC protocols based on Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) with wakeup and sleep periods have attracted considerable interest because of their low power co...
