A Survey on Sensor Networks

Outline

IntroductionCommunication architectureProtocol stackConclusion

Sensor Networks…low-cost, rapid deployment, self-organizing, and fault toleranceApplication areas: heath, military, and homeLarge number of sensor nodes that are densely deployedNodes use their processing abilities to locally carry out simple computations and transmit the required and partially processed data

Introduction

Application areas - heath

Compress data to reduce storage and communication bandwidth!

Application areas - military

Inactive Sensor

Active Sensor

Application areas

Ad hoc networks are not suitable for the sensor networks because of their unique features and application requirement The sensor network may have a much

larger number of nodes Transmission power and radio range Topology changes Mobility rate Power conservation

Communication Architecture

Fault Tolerance the ability to sustain sensor network functionalities

without any interruption due to sensor node failures

Scalability the density of sensor nodes can range from few

sensor nodes to few hundred sensor nodes in a region

Production Costs the cost of sensor node should be much less than

US$1 in order for the sensor network to be feasible

Environment can work in different environments

Multiplexing of data streamsData frame detectionMedium access and error controlEnsures reliable point-to-point and point-to-multipoint connections in a communication network

The Data Link Layer

Goals share communication resources

between sensor nodes fairly and efficiently

The Data Link Layer - Medium Access Control

MAC protocol Power conservation

SMACS and EAR[13] Random wakeup during setup and turning off while idle

Hybrid TDMA/FDMA[8] Hardware-based approach for system energy minimization

CSMA-based[9] Constant listening time for energy efficiency

The Data Link Layer -Some of the proposed MAC protocols

Power saving modes of operation Turning the transceiver off during idling

may not always be efficient due to energy spent in turning it back on each time

Error control Two modes of error control:

Forward Error Correction(FEC) decoding complexities

Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) additional retransmission energy cost and

overhead

The Data Link Layer

The Data Link Layer-Research issues

MAC for mobile sensor networksDetermination of lower bounds on the energy required for sensor network self-organizationError control coding schemesPower-saving modes of operation

Sequential Assignment Routing (SAR) Creates multiple trees where the root of

each tree is a one-hop neighbor from the sink
