Abstract
For wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is one of the most important subjects in recent research. In this paper, an energy-efficient multi-hop scheme based on cooperative MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) technique is proposed for wireless sensor networks. Different from other papers, we consider a single cluster transmission scenario in which energy consumption is optimized by selecting the hop length and modulation constellation size. The optimal energy consumption formula is derived and proved mathematically. In addition, the minimum energy consumption per bit is calculated numerically.
