Multi-channel network coding in tree-based wireless sensor networks

摘要: It has been recognized that using network coding improves the reliability and throughput of lossy wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Likewise, it is known multi-channel networking protocols can dramatically reduce end-to-end latency improve throughput. However, to date there virtually no research as how combine these two techniques in a WSN. This paper presents MuCode, novel tree-based WSN protocol uses coding. The MuCode set graph construction algorithms support synchronized channel switching take advantage eavesdropping for multi-path coded packet delivery. performance evaluated against Sensecode, standard protocol, well several other schemes. results demonstrate delivers superior combined measures latency.
