摘要由于无线信道的广播特性,无线传感器网络中任一节点发送的无线信号都可能被其通信范围内的其他节点接收。在尽量降低节点能耗的同时,如何有效协调多个节点共享无线信道资源,避免冲突发生是传感器网络介质访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)协议的主要任务。 本论文重点研究了无线传感器网络中基于竞争的 MAC 协议;对著名的 S-MAC协议的工作原理做了详细分析; 并且针对S-MAC协议中采用的固定占空比不能良好地适应网络流量变化的问题,提出了动态占空比机制,使得每个节点在周期时间不变的情况下自适应的调整侦听时间。仿真结果表明,具有动态占空比机制的S-MAC 协议与原有 S-MAC 协议相比,具有相同的能量效率性能,以及更佳的延迟和吞吐量性能。10039

Title Research on Contention-based MAC Protocols
for Wireless Senor Networks
Abstract
Because of the broadcast nature of wireless channels, wireless signals
transmitted by one node in a wireless sensor network (WSN) would be received
by any other nodes within its communication range. Under the target of
minimizing energy consumption of nodes, how to effectively coordinate
multiple nodes so that they can share the wireless channel resources and
avoid collision is the main task of media access control (MAC) protocol
for WSN.
This paper focuses on the contention-based MAC protocol for WSN. The famous
S-MAC protocol is studied and analyzed. We find it cannot be adapt to
traffic changes due to its fixed duty cycle. Then we propose dynamic duty
cycle mechanism which enables each node to adaptively adjust listening time
in the same cycle time. The simulation results show that the S-MAC protocol
with dynamic duty cycle has the same energy efficiency performance as well
as better latency and throughput performance compared with original S-MAC
protocol.
