A Cross Layer Approach for Real-Time Communication in Wireless Sensor Networks, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Movaghar, Ali (Supervisor) ; Khansari, Mohammad (Supervisor)
Abstract
Most of current the MAC protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) concern about energy efficiency rather than low latency. The main source of energy consumption in the MAC layer is idle listening, and most of these protocols use duty cycling for reducing energy consumption. But duty cycling method increases packet delivery latency. This problem is very critical in real time applications where packets should meet their deadline. There are some solutions for this problem. For example a node forwards data packets multi hop away instead of one hop in a single cycle. In this research, an efficient cross layer MAC protocol for real time applications is proposed. In this protocol multi hop...
