Currently, most wireless sensor network applications assume the presence of single-channel Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols. When sensor nodes are densely deployed, single-cha...
Abstract— Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) promise finegrain monitoring in a wide variety of applications, which require dense sensor nodes deployment. Due to high density of nod...
—Cross-layer design has been proposed as a promising paradigm to tackle various problems of wireless communication systems. Recent research has led to a variety of protocols that...
