A Connected Dominating Set (CDS) working as a virtual backbone is an effective way to decrease the overhead of routing in a wireless sensor network. Furthermore, a kConnected m-Do...
We consider a wireless sensor network in which sensors are grouped into clusters, each with its own cluster head (CH). Each CH collects data from sensors in its cluster and relays...
—In this paper, we investigate the maximization of the coverage time for a clustered wireless sensor network (WSN) by optimal balancing of power consumption among cluster heads (...
This paper presents an integrated MAC and routing protocol called Delay Guaranteed Routing and MAC (DGRAM) for delay sensitive wireless sensor network (WSN) applications. DGRAM is...
Duty cycling is often used to reduce the energy consumption caused by idle listening in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Most studies on WSN protocols define a common duty cycle va...
