Accurate Analysis of IEEE 802.15.4 Slotted CSMA/CA over a Real-Time Wireless Sensor Network

چکیده
Here, we present the collision probability of the IEEE 802.15.4 slotted Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) mechanism over a real-time wireless sensor network (RT-WSN), also called a synchronous network system. The “backoff,” the random delay of CSMA/CA, can be used to create a probability model and to determine the average packet delay over RT-WSN. The proposed theoretical analysis model was nearly consistent with the simulation and with experimental results. This suggests that the slotted CSMA/CA mechanism cannot be applied effectively to RT-WSN because it cannot avoid a high collision rate with RT-WSN application requirements and, therefore, may waste a great deal of system bandwidth. We found that the packet collision rate increased up to 731% compared to an ideal model with more than 10 users within an RT-WSN. Without improvements in methodology, the high collision rate makes this slotted CSMA/CA mechanism unsuitable for RT-WSN applications.

In beacon-enabled mode, IEEE 802.15.4 is ruled by the slotted CSMA/CA Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. The standard slotted CSMA/CA mechanism does not provide any means of differentiated services to improve the quality of service for timecritical events (such as alarms, time slot reservation, PAN management messages etc.). In this paper, we present and discuss practical service differentia...
متن کاملPerformances and Limitations of Unslotted Csma/ca Media Access in Ieee 802.15.4 Networks
Standard IEEE 802.15.4 offers three topology types and two channel access modes: slotted and unslotted CSMA/CA. The majority of a research work targets the performance of the slotted CSMA, despite the fact that wireless sensor networks are, by nature, intended to be multi-hop networks, where unslotted CSMA is the preferred media access control. This article analyzes the performance and limitati...

In this paper, we propose an analytic model to analyze a wireless sensor network (WSN) operating the IEEE 802.15.4 slotted CSMA/CA protocol with ACK mode. Based on the renewal approximation, we first develop an analytic model for a homogeneous WSN where all nodes in the network have the same traffic characteristic. Using our analytical model, we obtain performance metrics such as network throug...
