A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a network that monitors the physical environment using small and energy-efficient sensor devices. The wide application of WSNs has caused them to be used in critical applications that require a quick response, even at the cost of higher consumption. In recent years, Fast Reroute (FRR) technology has been developed, which accelerates network recovery after line or node failure. This technology plays an important role in connection recovery and data recovery, which helps speed up detection and redirect traffic. In our work, we created a new modification of the Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol, where we added the fast detection of link failure used in the FRR area. This modification rapidly increased connection recovery time and was tested in the OMNET++ simulation environment. The modification was implemented based on an additional RFC 5880 Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) module, which speeds up failure detection by sending quick “Hello” messages.

“…Energy consumption is a very important design consideration in WSNs, New wireless technologies emerge in the recent few years, providing large opportunities in terms of low power consumption, high and low rate and are promising for environment monitoring applications. IR-UWB technology is one of these new technologies and is considered as a next generation of the IEEE802.15.4 standard; it is a promising solution for WSN due to its various advantages such as its robustness to severe multipath fading even in indoor environments, its potential to provide accurate localization, its low cost and complexity, and low energy consumption [9]. It is necessary to find a very adapt MAC layer protocol to this Technology for keeping his advantages.…”

The introduction of the IR-UWB Technology in the field of WSN was promising for researchers especially for its low power consumption feature. To implement such a solution, we need a suitable MAC protocol to exploit the specific features of this technology. When introducing this Technology, ALOHA was the only candidate MAC protocol. Because of the high energy consumption of ALOHA, in this paper we present WideMac, a low power medium access control protocol designed specifically for Impulse Radio Ultra Wide Band transceivers. The IR-UWB channel offers ultra low power transmissions and unmatchable robustness to multiple access interference. WideMac takes advantage of these two key properties by using asynchronous periodic beacon transmissions from each network node. To test and evaluate the performance of WideMac protocol we used PhyLayerUWBIR class developed under MiXiM platform on OMNet++ as a physical layer. For the MAC layer we developed our own class WideMacLayer.
