Multi-channel MAC protocol based on network partitioning for wireless sensor networks by Bin CHENG, Lin-lin CI, Cheng-ping TIAN, Ming-hua YANG

“…The limited amount of available orthogonal channels and noise interference are two major issues to constrain performances of multi-channel MAC protocols in wireless sensor networks (WSN).In conjunction with features of data gathering networks,a partitioning-based multi-channel MAC protocol was designed.Initially it partitioned network into several sub-trees with lower collision factor,without increasing the total value of interference around the whole network.Furthermore,it adopted a coarse-grained channel assignment strategy on basis of graph coloring theory,in order to ensure each sub-tree work on a relative optimal channel.Simulation results show that the proposed MAC protocol can significantly improve throughput and reduce end-to-end latency and packet loss.…”

Mobile Base Station and Clustering to Maximize Network Lifetime in Wireless Sensor Networks by Oday Jerew, Kim Blackmore, Weifa Liang

“…Using a mobile base station (BS) in a wireless sensor network can alleviate nonuniform energy consumption among sensor nodes and accommodate partitioned networks. In the work of Jerew and Liang (2009) we have proposed a novel clustering-based heuristic algorithm for finding a trajectory of the mobile BS that strikes a nontrivial tradeoff between the traffic load among sensor nodes and the tour time constraint of the mobile BS. …”
