Abstract

Nodes in WSNs must operate under limited energy resource. Controlling access to the channel in WSNs plays a key role in determining channel utilization and energy consumption. This paper introduces a priority-based time slot allocation protocol for hybrid TDMA/CSMA MAC in WSNs. This protocol combines both TDMA and CSMA techniques while introducing prioritization by (m,k)-firm constraint. The performance of this protocol is obtained through simulations for various number of nodes and show significant improvements in delay and packet delivery ratio compared to S-MAC.

WSN내의 노드들은 한정된 에너지를 지녔다. 따라서 각 노드들의 채널에 대한 접근을 효율적으로 제어하는 것이 채널 활용성과 에너지 소모에 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 본 논문에서는 WSN에서 각 노드에서의 에너지 효율성을 높이기 위해 하이브리드 TDMA/CSMA MAC을 위한 우선순위 기반 타임 슬롯 할당 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안된 프로토콜은 TDMA와 CSMA 기법의 장점을 활용함과 동시에 (m,k)-firm 기법을 이용하여 채널 접근의 우선권을 제공하였다. 성능 평가를 위해 다양한 노드 수의 변화에 따른 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고, S-MAC과 비교하여 평균 지연시간과 패킷 전송률에서 많은 향상을 보여주었다.
