A Sleep-Scheduling-Based Cross-Layer Design Approach for Application-Specific Wireless Sensor Networks

The pervasiveness and operational autonomy of mesh-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs) make them an ideal candidate in offering sustained monitoring functions at reasonable cost over a wide area. To extend the functional lifetime of battery-operated sensor nodes, stringent sleep scheduling stra...
