文摘In wireless sensor networks(WSNs),nodes are often scheduled to alternate between working mode and sleeping mode from energy efficiency point of view.When delay is tolerable,it is not necessary to preserve network connectivity during activity(working or sleeping) scheduling,enabling more sensors to be switched to sleeping mode and thus more energy savings.In this paper,the nodal behavior in such delay-tolerant WSNs(DT-WSNs) is modeled and analyzed.The maximum hop count with a routing path is derived in order not to violate a given sensor-to-sink delay constraint,along with extensive simulation results.
文摘为减少电力线信道时变性对自动抄表系统(automaticmeter-reading system,AMRS)计量数据传输效率的不利影响,提出了中继路由与分组队列相结合的方法。中继路由将整条通信链路分割成若干子链路,可以有效提高传输效率,但传输效率仍受制于信噪比(signal to noise ratio,SNR)最低的子链路。为充分利用每条子链路的最大传输效率,在中继路由的基础上,引入了分组队列机制。该方法根据接收和发送子链路的信道状况,动态调整分组队列长度,实现了发送子链路和接收子链路独立传输。由基于SNR的3状态Markov信道模型得到分组的平均发送次数,以该次数表示中继路由的分组接收速率和分组发送速率,建立了基于OPNET的M/M/1/K的AMRS分组排队模型。通过分析不同排队强度时的分组队列长度与队列延时等参数,验证了该方法能够提高传输效率。
