A Multi-Path MAC Scheduling Scheme for Multi-Channel Wireless Sensor Networks

Designing reasonable MAC scheduling strategies is an important means to ensure transmission quality in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). When there exist multiple available routes from the source destination, it necessary combine a data traffic allocation mechanism and design multi-path scheme order QoS. This paper develops resource method for multi-channel networks, which uses random-access technology complete selects path each packet according probability. Through theoretical analysis simulation experiments, can be found that proposed strategy provide reliable throughput capacity region. Meanwhile, due use of technology, computational complexity algorithm independent number links channels.
