Abstract
In dense deployments of sensor nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks, the MAC protocol has challenges to solve problems such as reducing delivery delay and reducing energy consumption. To solve these problems lots of protocols are suggested. This paper proposed a sensor nodes’ residual energy based wake-up control mechanism, in which each node decides whether it wakes up or stays in sleep mode to save energy consumption by reducing unnecessary idle listening. The main idea of the wake-up control mechanism is to save node’s energy consumption. The proposed wake-up control mechanism is based on the RI-MAC protocol, which is one of the receiver-initiated MAC protocols. A receiver node in the proposed mechanism periodically wakes up and broadcasts a beacon signal based on the energy status of the node. A receiver node also adjusts wake-up period based on the traffics. Results have shown that the proposed MAC protocol outperformed RI-MAC protocol in the terms of energy consumption. 키워드 : 듀티 사이클, 에너지, MAC 프로토콜, 무선 센서 네트워크 Key word : Duty cycle, Energy, MAC protocol, Wireless Sensor Networks Received 18 August 2016, Revised 22 August 2016, Accepted 09 September 2016 * Corresponding Author Seong-Cheol Kim(E-mail:sckim@smu.ac.kr, Tel:+82-2-2287-5315) Department of Computer Science, Sangmyung University, Seoul 03016, Korea Open Access http://doi.org/10.6109/jkiice.2017.21.1.187 print ISSN: 2234-4772 online ISSN: 2288-4165 This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial License(http://creativecommons.org/li-censes/ by-nc/3.0/) which permits unrestricted non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
