An Energy-Efficient MAC Protocol Using Dynamic Queue Management for Delay-Tolerant Mobile Sensor Networks

Abstract: Conventional MAC protocols for wireless sensor network perform poorly when faced with a delay-tolerant mobile network environment. Characterized by a highly dynamic and sparse topology, poor network connectivity as well as data delay-tolerance, delay-tolerant mobile sensor networks exacerbate the severe power constraints and memory limitations of nodes. This paper proposes an energy-efficient MAC protocol using dynamic queue management (EQ-MAC) for power saving and data queue management. Via data transfers ini… Show more

“…The probability of winning the contention is the probability that a node is scheduled in a slot, that is , where for each individual node in a cluster is a function of the number packets arrivals and the energy level in the sensor nodes. A node that spends the most time in the active state, transmits the most packets, and has the highest utilization factor [ 26 , 27 ], hence the lowest remaining energy. Therefore the remaining energy level is proportional to the time a node spends in the active state.…”
