Linling Zhong, Jan M. Rabaey, Chunlong Guo, Rahul C. Shah · 2002
This paper presents the architecture of data link layer for wireless sensor networks. Requirements are specified and the functional description is given. The relationship between different subsystems is also discussed. The designed data link layer has ultra-low power consumption. It is distributed, simple and robust. Additionally, it requires no synchronization.
