A Novel Real-Time Mac Layer Protocol For Wireless Sensor Network Applications, B.K. Singh, Kemal Tepe
A Novel Real-Time Mac Layer Protocol For Wireless Sensor Network Applications, B.K. Singh, Kemal Tepe
Electrical and Computer Engineering Publications
This paper presents a comparative study of existing real-time MAC layer protocols for wireless sensor networks. Then, a new real-Time MAC protocol is presented that is based on a general purpose MAC protocol, called S-MAC. While medium access strategy in S-MAC is based on contention and back-off schemes, protocol proposed in this paper uses feedback approach as a medium access strategy. As a result of this, it increases consistency in data transmission pattern, which enables it to guarantee end-to-end delay deadlines for soft realtime applications. Proposed protocol works in continuous ON mode of operation at MAC layer and is intended …

Game Theoretic Approach In Routing Protocol For Wireless Ad Hoc Networks, Mohammad Naserian, Kemal Tepe
Electrical and Computer Engineering Publications
This paper introduces a game theoretic method, called forwarding dilemma game (FDG), which controls routing overhead in dense multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks. The players of the game are the wireless nodes with set of strategies {Forward, Not forward}. The game is played whenever an arbitrary node in the network receives a flooding packet. In FDG, every player needs to know the number of players of the game. That is why a neighbor discovery protocol (NDP) is introduced. In order for NDP to function, a field is attached to the flooding packets (routing overhead packets). The mixed strategy Nash equilibrium …
