Duty cycling plays a significant role in reducing more energy consumption by the nodes which are working continuously. When the nodes dissipate energy in continuous manner leads to reduction in lifetime of the nodes and hence minimizes the overall performance ratio of the system. In wireless sensor network, duty cycle is the ratio of active time or operational time i.e the time at which the particular set of nodes are active to the entire scheduling time. With duty cycling, each node oscillates between active and sleeping states so the nodes need not to be active or in continuous waiting period during its complete lifespan. The nodes are making active according to their requirements which saves energy. In this paper, the concept of asynchronous duty cycle broadcasting (ADB) protocol is used in which nodes are wakeup asynchronously which reduces the packet loss, increase throughput, reduces delay and packet delivery loss, and hence increase the energy efficiency by using multihop unicasting and broadcasting scenario. Also, the congestion can be controlled by using unicasting and thus, the overall performance of the network can be improved. The proposed algorithm mentioned in this paper will make the system adaptive i.e.making the network edge smarter and self-aware, intuitively finding and retaining the best, most reliable pathways for network traffic.
