IRBYTSA: A NOVEL LINK-SCHEDULING ALGORITHM FOR IEEE 802.15.4E TSCH NETWORK

摘要

This paper proposes a novel algorithm named IRByTSA, as a scheduling algorithm that is both simpler and faster than TASA, in terms of its speed in generating link-schedule decision. The simplification makes IRByTSA a low-complexity algorithm. The IRByTSA algorithm owes its relatively low complexity to the following procedures: maximum matching to generate link-schedule; maximization of nodes performing simultaneous transmissions by prioritizing from higher-ranking nodes to leaf node; transmission of all queued data packets in bursts (bursty); and provides each node with a transmission opportunity based solely on turn. The research confirms that the resulting complexity is , which indicates that IRByTSA is a low-complexity algorithm. The advantage of using such a fast and low-complexity algorithm is increased network scalability, as the reduction in complexity and increase in speed enable the existing PCE to serve additional networks.
