description

Wake-up Radios (WuRs) are becoming more popular in Internet of Things (IoT) networks owing to their overwhelming advantages such as low latency, high energy saving, and on-demand communication. In a multi-hop WuR-IoT network, route establishment between source and destination prior to actual data communications consumes a significant portion of energy. To reduce energy consumption and protocol overhead for route establishment, we propose a lightweight relay (LR) selection scheme, referred to as LR-WuR, where a lookup table and acknowledgment are used for next hop relay selection. We develop an analytical model to evaluate the performance of LR-WuR. Extensive simulations are performed to validate the accuracy of the analytical model. Furthermore, we present a framework for deriving optimal network parameters.
