Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) consist of networks of interconnected devices involved in retrieving multimedia content, such as, video, audio, acoustic, and scalar data, from the environment. The goal of these networks is optimized delivery of multimedia content based on quality of service (QoS) parameters, such as delay, jitter and distortion. In multimedia communications each packet has strict playout deadlines, thus late arriving packets and lost packets are treated equally. It is a challenging task to guarantee soft delay deadlines along with energy minimization, in resource constrained, high data rate WMSNs. Conventional layered approach does not provide optimal solution for guaranteeing soft delay deadlines due to the large amount of overhead involved at each layer. Cross layer approach is fast gaining popularity, due to its ability to exploit the interdependence between different layers, to guarantee QoS constraints like latency, distortion, reliability, throughput and error rate. The paper presents a channel utilization and delay aware routing (CUDAR) protocol for WMSNs. This protocol is based on a cross-layer approach, which provides soft end-to-end delay guarantees along with efficient utilization of resources. Extensive simulation analysis of CUDAR shows that it provides better delay guarantees than existing protocols and consequently reduces jitter and distortion in WMSN communication.

“…The study has integrated clustering protocols, MAC, and routing to minimize overhead caused due to transmission schedules. Hamid and Bashir [37] have a cross-layer approach for real-time data delivery to provide an efficient interaction between delay, admission control, dynamic duty cycle, and routing. Most recently, Espes et al [38] have adopted cross-layer approach to energy efficiency along with low delay and high data rate.…”

In the recent times, various applications are conceptualized where wireless sensor network (WSN) is used either as a subnetwork or as a complete domain. WSN having its unique characteristics, because of that the applicable protocols for congestion control, routing and security require distinguished mechanism as compared to other wireless networks such as WLAN, MANET, etc. One of the most irreversible resources is battery power. Since year 2000 a project called µAMS in Massachusetts Institute of technology (MIT), where Wendi Heizelman has introduced a communication protocol called Low Energy Adaptive clustered Hierarchy (LEACH). Since then, till today enormous amount of research schemes have been suggested to have different layers protocols in WSN, with optimal use of energy. This paper aims to study, investigate and analyze various contributions, limitations, technology used towards energy optimization based protocol development in WSN. The outcome of this paper will be quite valuable fro academicians, industries and researchers as a one hand tool to understand future research directions.

“…Therefore, a number of cross-layer designs have been proposed in order to improve QoS in WMSN. These designs focus on either improving one or more parameters such as bandwidth, delay, data loss, and energy consumption, [5][6][7][8] or enhancing the quality of received images or video. 9,10 In this work, a cross-layer design for image transmission in WMSN, using fuzzy logic, is proposed.…”

The evolution of wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSN) has opened the door to a wide range of applications such as telemedicine, surveillance, and intrusion detection. However, the delivery of multimedia content over wireless sensor networks requires maintaining the quality of service demands of the applications as well as the resource constraints of the network. This has motivated the design of cross-layer architectures as a promising solution for efficiently meeting the quality of service requirements and the resource constraints in WMSN. In this paper, a cross-layer design for image transmission, using fuzzy logic, is proposed to provide quality of service guarantees and efficient resource utilization in WMSN. The proposed cross-layer design takes into consideration the trade-off between the network performance and the quality of received images by exploiting the information exchange between different layers in the protocol stack. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach can efficiently improve the network performance in terms of packet loss, delay, and energy consumption, while maintaining an acceptable level of quality of the received images.
