Research Abstract

Wireless sensor networks are expected to realize various monitoring systems such as disaster monitoring for river floodplain, forest fire and so on. Sensor networks need to collect sensed data reliably as long time as possible. In this study, we developed network protocols such as reliable broadcasting schemes, adaptive modulation schemes, and path construction schemes to realize reliable data gathering considering power consumption, and verified their effectiveness by means of network simulations and demonstration experiments.
