Inventory Control Traffic Control Assisted Living Environmental Monitoring Interactive Gaming Habit Monitoring Target Tracking Precision Agriculture Space Monitor Border Control Infrastructure Integrity Analysis The Need for Long-Term Operation • For hostile environment • For unattended operations • For low deployment & maintenance cost
How to Prolong WSNs’ Lifetime? • Most effective solution: Low-Duty-Cycle WSN • Sensor nodes stay active for a very short interval and then turn off almost everything and go to sleep • A node periodically switches between active state and dormant state … Sender t Receiver … t Active State Dormant State
Existing Solutions • State-of-arts uses unicasts to do broadcasting/flooding • Lai et al., DCOSS’10, Sun et al., Sensys’09, Guo et al., MobiCom’09, • Inefficient use of energy! C B D C B D C D B A t 3 Transmissions in total! A Active State Dormant State
Existing Solutions • What if working schedules can be flexibly changed? C B D C B D C D B A t 3 Transmissions in total! A Active State Dormant State

Basic Idea • Build an energy-efficient flooding tree as the basic flooding structure • Children of a common parent tune their working schedules to wake up simultaneously • Children send ACKs to acknowledge the reception
New Challenges • How to build an energy-efficient flooding tree? • Traditional way that only considers link quality is not sufficient • How to avoid ACK-implosion problem? • Should reduce ACKs sent back by the receivers, but still guarantee reliability RN S S S R1 R2 Collision! … S S ACK ACK ACK
Idea of Correlated Flooding • Let highly correlated nodes to wake up at the same time and receive flooding packets simultaneously • A flooding tree is built with the consideration of both link quality and link correlation • For the same sender, ACK is only sent by the node with the lowest link quality, to eliminate the ACK implosion problem. More Energy Efficient! Eliminate ACK-Implosion!
Link Correlation • Link Correlation is the phenomenon that the reception results of a broadcasting packets at different nodes are not independent Given that a broadcasting packet is successfully received by B, what is the probability that it is also received by A? ? Pr(A|B) Pr(A) = 95% =95%: no correlation! >95%: positive correlation! < 95%: negative correlation!
Existence of Link Correlation • Experiment: 1 sender, 40 receivers, 100 packets • Receivers record the reception status using a bitmap Link Quality Link Correlation? S S S R1 R2 R40 1110111111 90% Pr(R1|R2) = 100% 1100111111 80% Pr(R2|R40) = 86% … Pr(R1|R2R40) = 100% S S 1101111100 70%
Existence of Link Correlation • Experiment: 1 sender, 40 receivers, 100 packets • Blue: distribution of link quality, # of packets received • Red: distribution of # of packets received, given the successful reception at other links with lower link quality
Impact of Link Correlation on Flooding • Two-node case: • N-node case: With correlated links, q12 ↑, E(m) ↓ ↓ with correlation, E(m) ↓
Construction of Flooding Tree • Group Division • Senders divide their receivers into a number of groups with high correlation within the group • Sender Selection • Each receiver selects only one sender to optimize the overall performance
Construction of Flooding Tree • Group Division: nodes with higher correlation are divided into the same group, using k-mean
Construction of Flooding Tree • Sender Selection: nodes selects its flooding parent to make the worst link in each group as high as possible w/o link correlation: R1 chooses S2 S S S S S R1 S2 R2 R3 S1 85% 95% 70% 80% w/ link correlation: R1 chooses S1
Idea of Correlated Flooding • Let highly correlated nodes to wake up at the same time and receive flooding packets simultaneously • A flooding tree is built with the consideration of both link quality and link correlation • For the same sender, ACK is only sent by the node with the lowest link quality, to eliminate the ACK implosion problem.
Evaluation • Test-bed implementation • 20 MicaZ nodes form a 2-hop network • Simulation Setup • Randomly generated network, 200~1000 nodes • Baseline • Traditional Energy-Optimal Tree

Test-bed Results Energy Cost on Data Packets Energy Cost on ACKs Data Packets Sent ACKs Sent 50% 10% Group # Group #
Simulation Results Energy Cost on Data Packets Energy Cost on ACKs Data Packets Sent 25% ACKs Sent 70% Network Size Network Size
Summary of Contributions • Experimentally verify the existence of link correlation, followed by a theoretical study about its impact on broadcasting/flooding • Utilizes the information of both link quality and link correlation to build an energy efficient flooding tree that saves the energy cost on data packets • Receptions at highly correlated nodes are Acknowledged by only one ACK, saving the energy cost on control packets (ACKs)
Existence of Link Correlation • A test-bed experiment with 1 sender and 40 receivers • Sender broadcasts 100 packets while receivers recording the reception results 111110111111…11100010 Length=100
Existence of Link Correlation • Link quality: how many 1s are there in a single bitmap? • Link correlation: how many 1s are there in node A’s bitmap while the corresponding bit in node B’s bitmap is 1? A: 11011------80% link quality B: 11011------80% link quality Correlation: Pr(A|B) = 100% !
