Wireless Sensor Networks
Because they provide practical machine-to-machine communication at a very low cost, the popularity of wireless sensor networks is expected to skyrocket in the next few years, duplicating the recent explosion of wireless LANs. Wireless Sensor Networks: Architectures and Protocols describes how to build these networks, from the layers of the
Energy Efficient Communication and Rate Control Algorithms for Wireless Sensor Networks
Sensor networks provide applications in many diverse areas. This is for the simple fact that they are reliable, flexible, easily deployable and highly cost-effective. Smart sensors can provide such diverse services as detecting signs of machine failures, sensing earthquakes, onset of flooding and even provide a warning system for potential terrorist attacks. Because the sensors are untethered and battery powered, these networks have to maintain a high yield to the energy spent per sensor device. These yields translate into mainly throughputs and packet latencies while keeping the energy usage at the minimum. In this work, we look at the communication level energy usage within the sensor networks and propose novel scheme for channel access optimized for energy consumption and rate control algorithms for traffic engineering and congestion control in wireless sensor networks. The first involves a novel medium access protocol for wireless sensor networks. The protocol is based on exploiting the periodicity inherent in carrier sensing schemes like CSMA/CA combined with a relaxed time-access arbitration regime among the competing nodes. Transmission and reception of data frames are made to be strictly receiver triggered events which makes it possible to bring down idle-listening drastically. The protocol also provides a way to make the channel access collision-free among the two-degree neighbors. PMAC requires no additional control signaling and no network-wide synchronization. The protocol does not seek to make any tradeoff for the gains in energy efficiency with latency or throughput. It presents high-energy efficiency and throughput improvement in low as well as high-traffic scenarios of sleeping. In the second part, we propose novel rate-control algorithms for the wireless sensor networks. There has been a growth in personal area network technologies like Bluetooth etc to support various applications that require multimedia level QoS in a high interference environment. Applications such as voice data traffic, file transfers, periodic synching of electronic devices within the range of 10m-15m requires sophisticated yet simple channel access techniques that accommodate different QoS requirements of these applications. In this context, the new rate control algorithms were designed that reduces the interference and maximized the throughput and reliability parameters such as packet success rates, packet latency and aggregate throughput per flow. Moreover, the rate control algorithm also takes into account the fairness issues among the competing flows in terms of the bandwidth-share.
