Implementation and Analysis of an Overhearing Cost Model based Broadcast Method for Wireless Sensor Networks Newton Alex Venkatraman Jayaraman
Overview What is a Wireless Sensor Network? Broadcasting Problem Statement What is Overhearing Cost? Experimental Setup Methodology Current Stage References
What is a Wireless Sensor Network? Large number of sensor devices Ad Hoc Network complex sensor nodes with communication, processing, storage capabilities
Broadcasting Packet transmitted to every node in the network Wide range of applications Updating Software Teleconferencing Online gaming
Problem Statement Implementing and analyzing an energy efficient broadcast method with focus on the Overhearing Cost model Suggest improvements to the algorithm based on the analysis
What is Over Hearing Cost? Consumption of energy by a non- designated receiver is not negligible.
Experiment Setup Measurements Transmission power Receiving power Circuit power Overhearing power
Methodology Implement a spanning tree algorithm on the sensor network Record the power measurements assuming zero overhearing cost Build the spanning tree with this cost Record the power measurements considering the overhearing cost Rebuild the spanning tree with this new cost Verify if the spanning tree changes with this new set of measurements Simulate the nesC code in TOSSIM Implement on Mica2 motes
Cumulative Designated Receiver Power Algorithm
Current State and Things to be done Coding of distributed spanning tree creation algorithm is almost complete Has to be tested on Tossim and eventually on the motes Power measurement
