Abstract
Development of energy-efficient, traffic-adaptive MAC algorithms that provide both high reliability and easy implementation property is the current major focus in wireless sensor network research. The operational characteristic of the station in packet transmission is completely different from those of deferring stations in steady state. In this paper, the fast collision resolution MAC algorithm is combined with traffic-aware queue status managements to achieve high energy efficiency and high performance at the same time. Through the implementations and various performance studies, the proposed algorithm shows significant performance improvements in wireless sensor networks.
