Abstract
During the last few years an increasing focus has been made by the research community in utilizing wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in an abundant variety of different applications. Such types of sensor networks are usually supplied by non-rechargeable batteries in order to reduce the expenses. Multi-hop wireless sensor networks frequently utilize a timedivision multiple-access (TDMA) plan with the purpose to systematically gather data from various positions of an extended region. The proposed access methods for the Medium Access Control (MAC) in this study combine hybrid proprieties. The proposed MAC specifies that in a given time interval the access to the medium has to be entirely free and without restrictions between the exterior nodes. While this event lasts, the nodes compete for a slot in the network. The proposed methodology corresponds to time-division hybrid multiple-access (TDHMA).
