MAC Protocols for Wake-up Radio: Principles, Modeling and Performance Analysis
2018
[EN] In wake-up radio (WuR) enabled wireless sensor networks (WSNs), a node triggers a data communication at any time instant by sending a wake-up call (WuC) in an on-demand manner. Such wake-up operations eliminate idle listening and overhearing burden for energy consumption in duty-cycled WSNs. Although WuR exhibits its superiority for light traffic, it is inefficient to handle high traffic load in a network. This paper makes an effort towards improving the performance of WuR under diverse load conditions with a twofold contribution. We first propose three protocols that support variable traffic loads by enabling respectively clear channel assessment (CCA), backoff plus CCA, and adaptive …
MAC Protocols for WuR Enabled WSNs : Design and Performance Evaluation
2017
Master's thesis Information- and communication technology IKT591 - University of Agder 2017 Increasing energy efficiency is a challenging task for protocol design in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) as well as in Internet of things (IoT). Traditionally, duty-cycled (DC) protocols have been widely adopted for data transmissions in WSNs for energy conservation by reducing idle listening and overhearing. Recently, wake-up radio (WuR) has merged as a promising technique to replace DC protocols thanks to its superior performance in both network lifetime and transmission latency. This thesis work focuses on the design and performance evaluation of WuR-enabled MAC protocols considering various traf…
