description

We analyze the maximum lifetime problem in sensor networks with limited channel capacity for multipoint-to-multipoint and broadcast data transmission services. For the transmission model in which the transmitter adjust the power of its radio signal to the distance to the receiver we propose a new Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio function and use it to modify the Shannon-Hartley channel capacity formula. We show, that in order to achieve an optimal data transmission regarding considered the maximum lifetime problem we cannot allow for any interference of signals. For considered transmission model and the modified capacity formula we solve the maximum lifetime problem in one dimensional regular sensor network for both discussed data transmission services.
