A study on link quality in single hop sensor networks with Brownian motion

摘要

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) play as a key important role in Internet of things era, they provide a lot of utilized applications deployed in quite different environments. Beside its clear benefits, a WSN has to face with several challenges which come from a practical environments such as interference phenomenon, energy limitation, transmission constraints or mobility model. Especially, several WSNs acted in underwater, micro-sensors or human being environments introduce new limitations of network performance due to unpredicted movement of nodes. To exploit this effect, this study considers a link quality issue as in throughput aspect of single hop Brownian Wireless Sensor Networks through analysis and numerical verification methods. The relationship of link throughput with other real conditions such as movement specifications and packet sizes are delivered to reach optimal transmission performance.
