Wireless Underground Sensor Network: Improving EBMR Protocol for the Purpose of Energy Conservation and Data Transmission Reliability
Morteza Karimi, Khairil Imran Ghauth · ASME Press eBooks · 2011
Wireless Underground Sensor Networks have been widely used to transmit information such as transmitting environmental information. The main issue in Wireless Underground Sensor Networks is the power consumption since the reliability of data depends on the power availability and longevity. In this paper we proposed a new data transmission method in EBMR protocol by using a Dynamic Window Acknowledgement that is able to reduce the number of acknowledgement send between sender and receiver. As a result, it helps to reduce the energy consumption of network devices.
