Novel cochannel interference avoidance strategy for outdoor remote medical monitor network

Abstract

In this paper we proposed a novel cochannel interference avoidance strategy for outdoor remote medical monitor network. We employ simulated annealing to design the channel allocation algorithm, which is the core of the strategy. We implemented the strategy in the experimental we built at Beijing outer suburb and took a series of experiments to examine the effect of the strategy. The experimental results showed that the interference level in the network was well controlled after the strategy is used.
