Outline • Introduction • Motivation • Channel and Traffic Assumption • TDMA-W: Details • Self-Organization • TDMA-W Channel Access Protocol • Simulation Results • Conclusion
Introduction (1/2) • Sensor networks are different from other wireless communication networks • In WSN, Traffic rate is very low • Typical communication frequency is at minutes or hours level • Sensor networks are battery powered and recharging is usually unavailable • Energy is an extremely expensive resource
Introduction (2/2) • Sensor nodes are generally stationary after their deployment • Sensor nodes coordinate with each other to implement a certain function • Traffic is not randomly generated as those in mobile ad hoc networks • Due to these differences, existing wireless MAC protocol are not suitable for WSN
Motivation (1/2) • Design a MAC protocol for WSN has two aspects • Contention-based • Schedule-based • This paper proposed a schedule-based MAC protocol as TDMA-W • Due to traffic rate is relatively low, we can have fix timings for door knocking for each node • It is a suitable MAC protocol for WSN for its collision-free and maintenance simplicity
Motivation (2/2) • TDMA-W • Each node is assigned two slots • Transmission/Send slot (s-slot) • Wakeup slot (w-slot)
Channel and Traffic Assumption • A TDMA-W frame lasts for Tframeseconds • Tframeis known to all nodes and is preset before deployment • A TDMA-W frame is divided into slots • Each node is assigned one slot for transmission and one slot for wakeup • Networks are synchronized
Self-Organization (1/9) • Assign time slots to the sensors within each TDMA-W frame • Assume sensor networks has data rate of 1 Mbps • Transmission of a 512 byte packet occupies the channel for about 3.9 ms • Assume a TDMA-W frame of 1 second divided into 256 slots • Each slot is of 3.9 ms • Capable of communicating 512 bytes
Self-Organization (2/9) • Each node randomly selects a slot with uniform probability among all slots to be its s-slot • During its selected s-slot, each node broadcasts • It’s Node ID • It’s S-slot number • One-hop neighbors’ IDs • One-hop neighbors’ S-slot assignments • Slot number of any s-slot during which this node has identified a collision
Self-Organization (3/9) • When a node is not transmitting, it turns on its receiver circuit and listens to the traffic from neighbors • The node should record all the information being broadcast by all its neighbors • Their s-slot assignments and their node IDs • The slot number of any slot being broadcast as a collision-prone slot
Self-Organization (4/9) • If a node determines that • it is involved in a collision • or finds out that one of its two-hop neighbors has the same s-slot • It then randomly selects an unused slot and go to step 2
Self-Organization (5/9) • If • no new nodes are joining in • or s-slot assignments are not changing • or no collisions are detected for a certain period • It implies all neighbor nodes are found and all the s-slots are final
Self-Organization (6/9) • Each node identifies an unused slot or any s-slot being used by the nodes beyond its two-hop neighbors and declares it as its w-slot • Note that w-slots need not be unique • Each node broadcasts its w-slot and the self-organization is complete
Self-Organization (7/9) • Some problems Collision Collision Slot=5 Slot=5 Select another Select another
Self-Organization (8/9) • Some problems • To solve this problem • Let one node go to the listening mode in its assigned s-slot with a probability Slot=5 Slot=5
slot=2 slot=2 slot=2 slot=2 Self-Organization (9/9) • To listen during s-slot with a probability • To set a collision counter • Collision in the same slot repeats, nodes can realize a deadlock has occurred slot=1 slot=1 Report collide slot=1 slot=1
TDMA-W Channel Access Protocol (1/4) • Each node maintains a pair of counters for every neighbors • Outgoing counters • Incoming counters • These counters are preset to an initial value • If no outgoing data is sent to a node in a TDMA-W frame • The node decrements the corresponding outgoing counter by one • Otherwise it resets the counter to the initial value
TDMA-W Channel Access Protocol (2/4) • If no incoming data is received from a neighboring node in a TDMA-W frame • The node decrements the corresponding incoming counter by one • If the counter is less than or equal to zero, the node stop listening to that slot starting from next TDMA-W frame
TDMA-W Channel Access Protocol (3/4) • If a outgoing data transmission request arrives • The node first checks the outgoing counter • If the counter is greater than zero, then the link is considered active and the packet can be sent out during the s-slot • If the counter is less than or equal to zero, a wakeup packet is sent out during the w-slot of the destination node prior to the data transmission
TDMA-W Channel Access Protocol (4/4) • If a node receives a wakeup packet in its w-slot • It turns itself on during the s-slot corresponding to the source node ID contained in the wakeup packet
Simulation Results (1/6) • Nodes are deployed randomly in a 500x500 sq. ft. area • Communication range is 100 feet for all nodes • Assume an IEEE 802.11 basic rate of 1 Mbps as the physical layer transmission rate • Slot length is set to be 4 ms • Long enough for transmitting a 512-byte packet • Tframe is set to 1 second • A TDMA-W frame has 250 slots
Simulation Results (2/6) • Self-organization protocol
Simulation Results (3/6) • Power consumption • Transmission : Receiving/Listening : Sleeping = 1.83: 1 : 0.001 • The network is synchronized • All the nodes become active at the same time • All data packets are fixed to be 256 bytes in length • Control packets (RTS, CTS, ACK in S-MAC and Wakeup packet in TDMA-W) are about 20 bytes in length • Initial value for counters is set to 3
Simulation Results (4/6) • One-Hop Random Traffic 10.1% 4.7% 0.7% 0.16%
Simulation Results (5/6) • Delay of Random One-Hop Traffic
Simulation Results (6/6) • Delay of All to One Reduction Operation Traffic
Conclusion • The proposed protocol only consumes 1.5% to 15% power of 10% S-MAC • It is about 6~67 times longer than 10% S-MAC • The proposed scheme also show the event with a delay comparable to S-MAC for one-hop traffic • The proposed protocol is collision free for data traffic so reliable transmission is guaranteed for all types of traffic
