Over the past two decades, hundreds of protocols have been developed for diversified applications of WSN corresponding to different layers in the communication stack. Among these, Media Access Control (MAC) layer protocols are of great interest due to providing possibility of optimizing performance parameters. Despite availability of a large number of survey articles, there remains a gap for a tutorial that offers guidelines about the development process of MAC protocol. In this paper, we present a detailed tutorial for developing a MAC protocol starting from the stage of research gap identification and ending at the performance evaluation. We described the journey of development and implementation of a novel asynchronous MAC protocol ADP-MAC (Adaptive and Dynamic Polling MAC) as a case study. ADP-MAC was developed by deploying a novel concept of channel polling interval distributions, and was compared against Synchronized Channel Polling- MAC (SCP-MAC) and lightweight Traffic Auto-Adaptation based MAC (T-AAD). Finally, we proposed major milestones of protocol development along with recommendations about publishing the research.

“…It is centered around a distributed base station, where wireless sensor nodes are the devices of the IoT, and each node uses wireless data communication to exchange information with one another. WSNs are multi-hop self-organizing networks made up of sensor nodes, tiny devices, and other devices that monitor occurrences in a target area and communicate the gathered data to a data center for processing [ 1 ]. In practical wireless sensor network application scenarios, heterogeneous wireless sensor networks (HWSNs) are often formed due to differences in the sensing, communication, and processing speeds of the nodes.…”

During these years, the 3D node coverage of heterogeneous wireless sensor networks that are closer to the actual application environment has become a strong focus of research. However, the direct application of traditional two-dimensional planar coverage methods to three-dimensional space suffers from high application complexity, a low coverage rate, and a short life cycle. Most methods ignore the network life cycle when considering coverage. The network coverage and life cycle determine the quality of service (QoS) in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. Thus, energy-efficient coverage enhancement is a significantly pivotal and challenging task. To solve the above task, an energy-efficient coverage enhancement method, VKECE-3D, based on 3D-Voronoi partitioning and the K-means algorithm is proposed. The quantity of active nodes is kept to a minimum while guaranteeing coverage. Firstly, based on node deployment at random, the nodes are deployed twice using a highly destructive polynomial mutation strategy to improve the uniformity of the nodes. Secondly, the optimal perceptual radius is calculated using the K-means algorithm and 3D-Voronoi partitioning to enhance the network coverage quality. Finally, a multi-hop communication and polling working mechanism are proposed to lower the nodes’ energy consumption and lengthen the network’s lifetime. Its simulation findings demonstrate that compared to other energy-efficient coverage enhancement solutions, VKECE-3D improves network coverage and greatly lengthens the network’s lifetime.

In wireless sensor networks, due to the significance of the location information of mobile nodes for many applications, location services are the basis of many application scenarios. However, node state and communication uncertainty affect the distance estimation and position calculation of the range-based localization method, which makes it difficult to guarantee the localization accuracy and the system robustness of the distributed localization system. In this paper, we propose a distributed localization method based on anchor nodes selection and particle filter optimization. In this method, we first analyze the uncertainty of error propagation to the least-squares localization method. According to the proportional relation between localization error and uncertainty propagation, anchor nodes are selected optimally in real-time during the movement of mobile nodes. Then we use the ranging and position of the optimally selected anchor nodes to obtain the location information of the mobile nodes. Finally, the particle filter (PF) algorithm is utilized to gain the optimal estimation of the localization results. The experimental evaluation results verified that the proposed method effectively improves the localization accuracy and the robustness of the distributed system.
