The internal interference is that simultaneous traffic activity by neighboring nodes in the same network, while the external interference is from wireless transmissions by other types of devices, such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth nodes. In this paper, we present two channel hopping algorithms for multichannel, single-radio wireless sensor networks.

文摘Due to the shared nature of the wireless medium, the performance of wireless sensor network is often limited by both internal interference and external interference.
