Analysis Model for the Efficient of the TDMA MAC for Wireless Sensor Network
Jiefu Yu · 2012
We presented a controllable threshold polling medium access protocol designed for wireless sensor networks.Although polling as one of kinds the TDMA medium access control protocol has the advantage of energy conservation,extensibility is not as good as that of contention-based protocol.The main goal of the MAC protocol is to realize the self-organizing in slot assignment and synchronization.Methods of the imbedded Markov-chain theory and the probabilitygenerating function were used to propose an analysis model of energy efficient for wireless sensor network.Finally,mathematic analyses and simulations results show that the proposed model is suitable for analyzing the energy efficient of MAC for wireless sensor network.
