Virtual infrastructures or backbones in wireless sensor networks reduce the communication overhead and energy consumption. In this paper, we present BackBone Routing (BBR), a nove...
A number of routing protocols [1] have been proposed for wireless sensor networks in recent years. Considering energy-efficiency as the primary objective, most of routing protocol...
Abstract. The accuracy of link-quality estimators (LQE) is missioncritical in many application scenarios in wireless sensor networks (WSN), since the link-quality metric is used fo...
