D-STAR MAC Protocol: A Cross Layer Solution for Wireless Sensor Networks Endowed with Directive Antennas

This paper deals with a novel MAC layer protocol, namely Directive synchronous transmission asynchronous reception (D-STAR), which is able to logically synchronize a Wireless sensor network (WSN). In this case both sleep and active states together with integrating directional antennas within the communications framework can be managed, according to a cross-layer design. D-STAR protocol has been characterized in terms of functional characteristics and the overall performance is presented in terms of network lifetime gain, set-up latency and collision probability. A remarkable gain is shown with respect to the basic approach endowed with omnidirectional antennas without increasing the signaling overhead nor affecting the set up latency, but achieving energy consumption reduction.

A Delay-Aware Congestion Control Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

In wireless sensor networks, congestion leads to buffer overflowing, and increases delay. The tradi-tional solutions use rate adjustment to mitigate congestion, thus increasing the delay. A Delay-aware congestion con-trol protocol (DACC) was presented to mitigate congestion and decrease delay. In order to improve the accuracy of the existing congestion detection model which is based on the buffer occupancy of a single node, DACC presents a new model considering both the real-time buffer occupancy and the average transmission time of packets. DACC uses the untapped bits in the IEEE 802.11 Distributed coordination function (DCF) frames header to carry congestion infor-mation. During the congestion alleviation period, DACC presents a channel occupancy mechanism which is based on the real-time buffer occupancy for the purpose of decreas-ing delay and preventing packet loss. Simulation results indicate that in terms of delay, packet delivery ratio, col-lision and buffer load, DACC has comparative advantages than those of 802.11 DCF, Priority-based congestion con-trol protocol (PCCP) and Decoupling congestion control and fairness (DCCF).

Energy Efficient Non-uniform Clustering Division Scheme in Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless sensor networks can be used to monitor the interested region by multi-hop communication. Since sensor nodes are equipped with energy-limited batteries, energy conservation in such networks is of paramount importance in order to prolong the network lifetime. In this paper, considering the constrained radio range of node, we propose an energy efficient clustering division scheme from the viewpoint of energy consumption. The difference between our scheme and previous schemes is that ours is a non-uniform clustering hierarchy. With the algorithm that is proposed by this paper, we can divide the cluster into multiple non-uniform concentric rings and obtain the optimal thickness of each ring. Motivated by the derived results, every sensor node can adjust its radio range for transmission. Our extensive simulation results indicate that the proposed non-uniform clustering division scheme outperforms the conventional uniform clustering division schemes in terms of energy consumption and lifetime. The future research that should be explored is also discussed finally.

Energy-efficient MAC protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks

Designing energy-efficient Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols has a significant influence on the energy performance of wireless sensor network (WSN). In this paper we present a survey of the recent typical MAC protocols regarding energy effi ciency for WSN. According to channel access policies, we classify these protocols into four categories:contention-based, TDMA-based, hybrid, and cross layer protocols, in which the advantages and disadvantages in each class of MAC protocols are discussed. Finally, we point out open research issues that need to carry on to achieve high energy efficiency for the design of MAC protocols in WSN.     

A Distributed Query Protocol in Wireless Sensor Networks

In wireless sensor networks, query execution over a specific geographical region is an essential function for collecting sensed data. However, sensor nodes deployed in sensor networks have limited battery power. Hence, the minimum number of connected sensor nodes that covers the queried region in a sensor network must be determined. This paper proposes an efficient distributed protocol to find a subset of connected sensor nodes to cover the queried region. Each node determines whether to be a sensing node to sense the queried region according to its priority. The proposed protocol can efficiently construct a subset of connected sensing nodes and respond the query request to the sink node. In addition, the proposed protocol is extended to solve the k-coverage request. Simulation results show that our protocol is more efficient and has a lower communication overhead than the existing protocol.
