Enabling quality of service (QoS) applications over battery‐constrained wireless sensor
networks (WSNs) poses significant challenges, because of the special characteristics of …

The application areas of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are expanding with time. Many
of these applications demand a lower end-to-end delay, high throughput, and …

One of the key problem for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is the design of Medium Access
Control (MAC) protocol, which medium access is the major consumer of sensor energy …

In this paper, we propose a new medium access control (MAC) protocol for wireless sensor
networks called MMSMAC (multi-mode sensor MAC protocol), which operates according to …

Medium access control (MAC) protocols play a crucial role in energy-efficiency, latency
reduction for sensor networks. Many research efforts have been made to reduce energy …

This work presents a distributed time slot assignment algorithm which adopts TDMA as
Medium Access Control, specially suited to support applications with strict delay, jitter and …

We propose an adaptive and energy-efficient TDMA-based MAC protocol that significantly
reduces energy consumption in the network, while efficiently handling network traffic load …

Scheduling or allocation of resources becomes one of the fundamental problems in wireless
networks when several nodes contend to access a single and a common medium. To design …

In this paper, we propose a new medium access control protocol for wireless sensor
networks, named LE-MAC (Latency and Energy aware MAC) that aims to minimize data …

In wireless sensor networks (WSN), sensor nodes are hardly recharged, so energy efficiency
is always considered to be of primary importance. However, recent applications, such as …
