TDMA-based scheduling for multi-hop wireless sensor networks with 3-egress gateway linear topology
share
Packet transmission scheduling on multi-hop wireless sensor networks with 3-egress gateway linear topology is studied. Each node generates a data packet in every one cycle period and forwards it bounded for either of gateways at edges. We focus on centrally-managed Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA)-based slot allocations and provide the design of a packet transmission scheduling framework with static time-slot allocation and basic redundant transmission to reduce and recover packet losses. We proposed three general path models, which would represent all possible variations of this topology, and derived a global static time-slot allocation on each of models to maximize the theoretical probability that all packets are successfully delivered to one of the gateways within one cycle period.
