Queue and Priority-Aware Adaptive Duty Cycle Scheme for Energy Efficient Wireless Sensor Networks

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), energy efficiency is a fundamental issue that requires attention in the design of communication protocols. Energy waste occurs as a result of collision and idle listening. The widely used mechanism for energy saving in WSN is duty cycling. Duty cycling coordinates the sleep/wake-up time of sensor nodes to maximize the network lifetime while achieving specific application goals such as high throughput or low...
