PW-MAC objectives

2

Minimize energy consumption both at senders

and at receivers while maintaining:

• High packet delivery ratio

• Low delivery latency

Related work: duty cycling

Duty-Cycling MAC protocols:

– Synchronous: e.g., S-MAC, DW-MAC.

– Asynchronous: e.g., B-MAC, PW-MAC, EM-MAC.3

Duty cycle: The percent of time a node is active.

Related work: synchronous protocols

Problems of synchronous protocols:

– Global time synchronization.

– Contention is packed to DATA period.

Cycle

Related work: asynchronous protocols

Asynchronous

– Nodes wake up asynchronously.

– No global time synchronization.

How does sender rendezvous with receiver?

– Sender-initiated or receiver-initiated.

Why pseudorandom wakeup?

• Enable sender to predict receiver reduce energy consumption

• Spread traffic to different times mitigate wireless contention
