A New MAC Protocol For Cluster-Based Wireless Sensor Networks
Hongwu Li · Microcomputer Information · 2010
A new MAC protocol (TF-CB) based on TDMA and FDMA for cluster-based wireless sensor networks is put forward. With its method of redundant node elimination,cluster partition,time slot inside cluster partition and frequency between clusters partition,a network with less conflict could be built. The TF-CB could afford facilities for networks management,and reduce energy consumption of networks.
