Reducing Inter-Cluster TDMA Interference by Adaptive MAC Allocation in Sensor Networks
This paper presents a Self-Reorganizing Slot Allocation (SRSA) mechanism for TDMA based Medium Access Control (MAC) in multi-cluster sensor networks. The aim is to provide a MAC l...

MERLIN: Cross-layer integration of MAC and routing for low duty-cycle sensor networks
Sensor network MAC protocols typically sacrifice packet latency to achieve energy efficiency. Such delays may well increase due to routing protocol operation. For this reason it i...
