In this paper, a CDMA-based medium access control (MAC) scheme in underwater acoustic sensor networks is proposed, in which a periodic sleeping mode is jointly employed for the pu...

Abstract—Traditionally, random access protocols have been designed and studied by assuming simple models for the physical layer. We introduce a reception model that incorporates ...
In a traditional wakeup scheduling, sensor nodes start up numerous times to communicate in a period, thus consuming extra energy due to state transitions (e.g. from the sleep state...
— We propose a contention based reservation MAC protocol for a collaborative sensing scenario involving a set of surveillance UAVs communicating with a hub. Data transmission rig...
Nodes in sensor networks often encounter spatially-correlated contention, where multiple nodes in the same neighborhood all sense an event they need to transmit information about....
