Performance Improvement of IEEE 802.15.4 Beacon-Enabled WPAN with Superframe Adaptation Via Traffic Indication

چکیده
The IEEE 802.15.4 standard provides the widely accepted solution for low-cost and low-power wireless communications. Despite its design support for low duty-cycle operation, the fixed superframe size in Beacon-enabled mode limits its capabilities due to two contrasting goals; energy efficiency and higher data throughput. In this paper, we propose an enhancement of IEEE 802.15.4 Beacon-enabled mode which adaptively adjusts the active period based on the traffic information. In order to detect the data traffic in the networks, the proposed scheme utilizes the IEEE 802.15.4 CCA function. Evaluation results show that our scheme can improve energy efficiency as well as data throughput.

IEEE 802.15.4 provides beacon enabled and non-beacon enabled modes. Beacon enabled mode is generally used for energy efficiency. However, the main problem of beacon enabled mode is the fixed superframe structure that leads to inefficient transmission in dynamic traffic conditions. Moreover, 802.15.4 does not provide differential service according to traffic types. In this paper, we propose a Di...

We analyze the performance of an IEEE 802.15.4 compliant network cluster operating in the beacon enabled mode with both downlink and uplink traffic. We investigate the non-saturation regime and outline the conditions under which the network abruptly goes to saturation. The operation of the WPAN is modeled through discrete time Markov chains and the theory of M/G/1 queues. The model considers ac...
