Abstract— In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), reducing energy consumption of resource constrained sensor nodes is one of the most important issues. In this paper, we propose a ta...
: This paper describes the implementation architecture and performance analysis of nanoMAC, a CSMA/CA based medium access control protocol, which is specifically designed for high...
Energy conservation is one of the primary goals of the majority of MAC protocols designed for wireless sensor networks. In Sensor-MAC (S-MAC), one of the first MAC protocols design...
—Earlier sensor network MAC protocols focus on energy conservation in low-duty cycle applications, while some recent applications involve real-time high-data-rate signals. This m...
In contention-based sensor networks, nodes compete to access a shared channel for data transmission and collision is a common challenge. For power conservation, periodical active/s...
