Implementation of a Modified Wireless Sensor Network MAC Protocol for Critical Environments

Abstract: A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a network of many nodes. These nodes are equipped with sensors which communicate wirelessly using techniques for radio frequency transmission. This network helps to measure and record the physical environment variables and to forward these results to a central location known as a sink. As WSN nodes are only supplied by a battery, the primary challenge is to reduce the energy consumption. The MAC layer is responsible for the establishment of a reliable and efficient communicat… Show more

“…In recent times, plenty of QoS-attentive MAC as well as network layer protocols has been presented in WSNs. 14,15,[17][18][19][20][21][22] Various Based on the survey, [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] tive and non-competitive protocols are CSMA/CA and TDMA, respectively. In WSNs, the network's lifespan can be enhanced by designing protocols for power-proficient MAC.…”

“…Also, protocols for the MAC layer of WSNs have been studied extensively over the years. A new MAC protocol that used an improved variant of Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) and Weak Signal Detection (WSD) was implemented by (Richert et al, 2017). CSMA/WSD enabled dividing collisions from weak signals and took appropriate decisions to reduce energy consumption.…”
