Toward perpetual wireless networks: opportunistic large arrays with transmission thresholds and energy harvesting

Solving the key issue of sustainability of battery-powered sensors continues to attract significant research attention. The prevailing theme of this research is to address this concern using energy-efficient protocols based on a form of simple cooperative transmission (CT) called the opportunistic...
