Beacon Scheduling for Collision Avoidance Reduction of Power Consumption with Beacon Network Non-beacon-Enabled Network cannot provide a power-efficient operational mode Beacon Aggregation for throughput enhancement in the case of two or more PANs merging. Efficient Real-Time Short Address Allocation Algorithms Routing Algorithm: Proactive or Reactive Power-Efficient Operation Mode Support of Time-Critical or Delay-Sensitive Applications Adoption of RTS/CTS for Solving Hidden Node Problem Exposed Node Problems and Their Solutions Issues of Mesh Networks Ho-In Jeon, Kyung-Won University

Data Transfer Hidden Node Problem A B C • Hidden node problems are solved by adopting RTS/CTS mechanisms. • IEEE 802.15.4 Network does not support RTS/CTS under the assumption that the data frame are short enough to cause a serious problem. Ho-In Jeon, Kyung-Won University
Data Transfer Exposed Node Problem D A B C • When node B send data to node A, C cannot send his data to node D, because they adopted CSMA/CA. • The truth is that the node C can still send his data to D at the same time when the node B send the data to node A. Ho-In Jeon, Kyung-Won University

Conclusions and Discussions • The operating principles of the Mesh Network has been addresses. • Hidden node problems are solved by the adoption of RTS/CTS mechanism. • Exposed node problem can be solved by using neighbor tables of each node. • The prepared sender has to get the information of the destination node from the receiving signal. • The efficiency can not be as good as 100%, in theory.
