Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are more popular due to the use of low cost sensors with their interfaces. In designing of WSNs, energy conservation is a main issue. The nodes available in WSNs use battery as limited energy source. Various techniques have been proposed to improve the energy efficiency in WSNs. Energy efficient Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol is required for obtaining higher energy efficiency during difficult operating conditions, where node failure and link failures are common. Cross layer approach between data link and network layer is adapted in the proposed work. In the proposed work, the MAC protocols such as Correlation based Collaborative MAC (CC-MAC), CC-MAC combined with Hybrid MAC, Hybrid MAC, Hybrid MAC combined with sensor MAC have been considered for analysis. Two popular routing protocols such as Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector, Ad hoc On-demand Multipath Distance Vector are also considered to identify the routing performance of the network. The Parameters such as end-to-end delay, packet drop, packet delivery ratio, throughput, energy efficiency are considered to measure the network performance. These parameters are acting as a primary and secondary attributes to design an efficient MAC protocols for WSNs.
