A Distributed Joint Channel and Slot Assignment for Convergecast in Wireless Sensor Networks
Ridha Soua, Pascale Minet, Erwan Livolant · 2014
In this work, we study raw convergecast in multichannel wireless sensor networks (WSNs) where the sink may be equipped with multiple radio interfaces. We propose Wave, a simple and efficient distributed joint channel and time slot assignment. We evaluate the number of slots needed to complete the convergecast by simulation and compare it to the optimal schedule and to a centralized solution.
