Abstract

In recent years, the idea of wireless sensor networks has produced lots of research, because of wireless sensor networks can be applied widely in many fields. In wireless sensor networks, erroneous transmission can happen by wireless channel noise. Automatic repeat request (ARQ) detects errors using cyclic redundancy check (CRC) and retransmission of data is used as error control scheme for wireless sensor networks. Sensor node requires long lifetime with limited battery, but retransmission reception of data is the primary source of energy consumption and reduces the lifetime of sensor node. Therefore, error control scheme of forward error correction (FEC) for wireless sensor networks is necessary [1].
