Using a testbed of 98 XSM motes (an enhanced version of MICA2 motes), we characterize the negative impact that link layer retransmission and traffic-induced interference have on the accuracy of beacon-based link estimation, and we show that data-driven link estimation and routing achieve higher event reliability (e.g. by up to 18.75%) and transmission efficiency (e.g., by up to a factor of 1.96) than beacon-based approaches These findings provide solid evidence for the necessity of data-driven link estimation and demonstrate the importance of addressing the drawbacks of beacon-based link estimation when designing protocols for low-power wireless networks of cyber-physical systems.展开更多
