Environmental monitoring system based on sensor networks using multi-channel MAC protocol
Pages 3326 - 3329
Abstract
In this paper, we present a wireless sensor network based environmental monitoring system. The sensor network operates under mesh topology. Nodes are composed of RF transceiver CC1100, low power microprocessor C8051F920 and relevant components such as sensors. The MAC protocol accompanies TDMA/FDMA, frequency hopping and duty-cycled receiving, realizing a collision-free, energy efficient and low latency link. The data received by the sink node is finally uploaded to the Internet through Web Service. Users around world can get access to the data by pointing on the map.

A multi-channel MAC implementation for wireless sensor networks
SenSys '07: Proceedings of the 5th international conference on Embedded networked sensor systemsSensor nodes are typically battery powered and operate in unattended environments. Minimizing the energy consumption of sensor nodes is, therefore, important to prolong the network life time. Since the radio is a main energy consumer, most of the Medium ...
