Abstract

This paper investigates the validity of the beacon scheduling algorithm specified in the IEEE802.15.4e draft, more specifically Deterministic Synchronized Multichannel Extension (DSME) capability, and presents a concrete guideline for its practical implementation. Based on experimental results, we revise the DSME beacon scheduling by resolving several problems step by step, and finally propose an enhanced beacon scheduling method. In addition, we also prove the performance superiority of the enhanced beacon scheduling, through experiments under various environments.
