Abstract:

Experience has shown that the power consumption of sensors and other wireless computational devices is often dominated by their communication patterns. We present a practical realization of lazy packet scheduling that attempts to minimize the total transmission energy in a broadcast network by dynamically adjusting each node’s transmission power and rate on a per-packet basis. Lazy packet scheduling leverages the fact that many channel coding schemes are more efficient at lower transmission rates; that is, the energy required to send a fixed amount of data can be reduced by transmitting the data at a lower bit rate and transmission power. The optimal per-packet transmission rate in a multi-node network is governed in practice by the available bit rates of the given transceiver(s), the nodes ’ delay tolerance, and the offered load at every node contending for the shared broadcast channel. We propose an extension to the traditional CSMA/CA MAC scheme called L-CSMA/CA that allows individual nodes to continually estimate the current demand for a broadcast channel and adjust their transmission schedules accordingly. Our simulation results show that L-CSMA/CA can provide improved energy efficiency in a singlehop, broadcast network (20–25 % with more than 10 nodes, and up to 99 % for four nodes with a standard power function) for both Poisson and bursty arrivals with only minor degradation the capacity of the channel.
