Sensor nets have many undisputed fields of application. A paradigm of communication is the use of one control channel in the MAC layer. We challenge this paradigm for nodes with v...
The applications of Wireless Sensor Networks are seriously constrained by energy supply. So how to prolong the network lifetime is an important and challenging issue, which is the ...
In self-organizing networks of battery-powered wireless sensors that can sense, process, and communicate, energy is the most crucial and scarce resource. However, since sensor netw...
—Energy-efficiency is a central challenge in sensor networks, and the radio is a major contributor to overall energy node consumption. Current energy-efficient MAC protocols fo...
