The role of MAC routing in wireless sensor networks
This paper describes the specific requirements in the design of versatile wireless sensor networks (WSN) and how MAC routing algorithms influence on their performance. Investigation of the impact of the MAC routing algorithms on the battery consumption of the sensor nodes and packet delivery delay is based on the WSN simulation in OMNET++ framework. Simulation results are validated with the actual measurements using Arduino nodes with XBEE modules.
