Abstract

To provide scalability, wireless sensor network has cluster-based architecture. Wireless sensor network can be implemented based on the IEEE 802.15.4 which is exploited in 2.4GHz ISM frequency band. Since this frequency band is used for various data communication, network status of wireless sensor networks frequently changes according to wireless environment. Thus, wireless channel selection to avoid reduction of transmission efficiency is required. This paper estimates network status using the information that a cluster-head collects in a cluster. Through objective function with throughput, RSSI level and reliability as input parameters, this paper proposes proper wireless channel selection. Simulation results show that the proposed method maintains transmission efficiency even though network status changes.
