Paper Abstract:
|
Recently, a sensor network is studied actively as a new application of network technologies. In some cases, it is
considered as an example of ad hoc networks, but its requirements of functionality and power usage limitation are
different from those for ad hoc networks, that is, the control system and the sensor nodes are asymmetric in terms of the
functionality and the power usage. The communication scheme is also different. In a sensor network, the application
level communication is performed mainly between the control system and the sensor nodes. On the other hand, the
communication quality requirements, such as the reliability of data transfer, are similar. In this paper, we propose a new
information retrieval protocol for a wireless sensor network. The proposed protocol takes account of the functional and
power limitation requirements of sensors and provides high quality of communication. This paper describes the detailed
design and the performance evaluation of our protocol. |
