The algorithm requires that all sensor nodes have the same value of contention window (CW) in a cluster, which is revealed by formulating resource allocation as a network utility maximization problem. Then, by maximizing the total network utility with constrains of minimizing collision probability, the optimal value of CW (Wopt) can be computed according to the number of sensor nodes. The new backoff algorithm uses the common optimal value Wopt and leads to fewer collisions than binary exponential backoff algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms standard 802.11 DCF and S-MAC in average collision times, packet delay, total energy consumption, and system throughput.展开更多

A chain-type WSN is fundamental y different from other types of WSNs, in which the sensor nodes are deployed along elongated geographic areas and form a chain-type network topo-logy structure. This paper investigates the node scheduling prob-lem in the chain-type WSN. Firstly, a node dormant scheduling mode is analyzed theoretical y from geographic coverage, and then three neighboring nodes scheduling criteria are proposed. Sec-ondly, a hybrid coverage scheduling algorithm and dead areas are presented. Final y, node scheduling in mine tunnel WSN with uniform deployment （UD）, non-uniform deployment （NUD） and op-timal distribution point spacing （ODS） is simulated. The results show that the node scheduling with UD and NUD, especial y NUD, can effectively extend the network survival time. Therefore, a strat-egy of adding a few mobile nodes which activate the network in dead areas is proposed, which can further extend the network survival time by balancing the energy consumption of nodes.展开更多

A target tracking protoco–exponential distributed predictive tracking （EDPT） is proposed. To reduce energy waste and response time, an improved predictive algorithm–exponential smoothing predictive algorithm （ESPA） is presented. With the aid of an additive proportion and differential （PD） controller, ESPA decreases the system predictive delay effectively. As a recovery mechanism, an optimal searching radius （OSR） algorithm is applied to calculate the optimal radius of the recovery zone. The simulation results validate that the proposed EDPT protocol performes better in terms of track failed ratio, energy waste ratio and enlarged sensing nodes ratio, respectively.展开更多

This paper proposes a WSN-based multi-hop networkinfrastructure, to increase network lifetime by optimizing therouting strategy. First, a network model is established, an operatingcontrol strategy is devised, and energy consumption characteristicsare analyzed. Second, a fast route-planning algorithm isproposed to obtain the original path that takes into account the remainingenergy of communicating nodes and the amount of energyconsumed in data transmission. Next, considering the amount ofenergy consumed by an individual node and the entire network,a criterion function is established to describe node performanceand to evaluate data transmission ability. Finally, a route optimizingalgorithm is proposed to increase network lifetime by adjusting thetransmission route in protection of the weak node （the node withlow transmission ability）. Simulation and comparison experimentalresults demonstrate the good performance of the proposed algorithmsto increase network lifetime.展开更多
