DiSCA: a Distributed Scheduling for Convergecast in Multichannel Wireless Sensor Networks
Résumé
—The new IEEE 802.15.4e standard does not specify how the schedule of medium accesses followed by wireless sensors is built. That is why, we propose a distributed interference-aware joint channel and time slot assignment, called DiSCA, for a traffic-aware convergecast in multichannel wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Unlike most previous studies, we consider two cases of transmissions: without acknowledgment and with immediate acknowledgment. We provide the minimum bound on the number of time slots needed for a convergecast with a sink equipped with multiple radio interfaces. Simulations results show that DiSCA is close to the optimal in terms of the number of slots and outperforms TMCP.
