Cross-Layer Optimization in Short Range Wireless Sensor Networks
(CROPS)
Part I and Part II
|
NORDITE Project In this project we study
short-range wireless sensor networks. The leitmotif is
energy-efficiency. The energy consumption of a sensor node can
be split into sensing, communication and processing. In short-range
networks the energy spent on sensing and data processing can be of the
same order of magnitude as that spent on communication. This requires
completely new ways of thinking when proposing energy-efficient
solutions. In particular we emphasize cross-layer designs. The
state-of-the-art is not particularly advanced due to the difficulty in
gathering different competences into one integral project. We have
however gathered the necessary expertise.
For the second part of the project (2008-10), we focus on spectrum
sensing as the motivating application.
