Abstract

We study group communication scheduling in duty-cycled multi-hop wireless sensor networks. Assume that time is divided into time-slots and we group multiple consecutive time-slots into periods. Each node can transmit data at any time-slot while it only wakes up at its active time-slot of every period and thus be allowed to receive data. Under the protocol interference model, we investigate four group communication patterns, i.e., broadcast, data aggregation, data gathering, and gossiping. For each pattern, we develop a delay efficient scheduling algorithm which greatly improve the current state-of-the-art algorithm. Additionally, we propose a novel and efficient design to coherently couple the wireless interference requirement and duty cycle requirement.
