  12. Application traffic • Car moving across the network from left to right at a speed of 5~15 MPH • A mote generates a “start” message at the beginning of an event; the mote generates an “end” message at the end of the event • All the messages are sent to the base station, which performs higher-level detection and classification

  38. TDMA-based Routing Experiments & Simulations UCI

  39. Routing Tree PowerNode master gate worker Group 2 Group 3 Group 1 • Motes • 24 Mica2 motes • Topology • 6x4 grid with 4 ft. spacing, outdoors • PowerNode at upper left corner to test the longest routing paths • Communication settings • Size of TDMA slot = 48 msec • 12 TDMA slots per cycle • Packet transmission frequency: 1.736Hz (one per TDMA cycle) • Radio transmission power: 3 • Total number of packets: 36,840 • Data contents of msgs: 3 ~ 24 bytes (variable sizes) • Metric: Response Time = Sensing-to-Tracking Time PN Group 4 Group 5 Group 6

  40. Experimental Results & Observations • Every worker node was programmed to generate sensor data reports once every TDMA round. ==>Multiple simultaneous reports were handled without unnecessary collisions. • Over 95% of one-hop link reliability is achieved ==> Reflects high performance of the global clock synchronization mechanisms built. • 18 out of 24 motes reported their environment sensing data. 17 out of 18 motes experienced negligible variances in power node response times ==> Proves highly deterministic nature of the protocol. End-to-End Delivery Success Rate

  41. Simulation of TDMA & Routing with Prowler • Application layer: Describe the motes’ handling of events: Packet_Sent, Packet_Received, Clock_Tick. It also implements the mote initiation and data file storage. • Radio channel layer: On top of the CSMA layer, a layer which executed TDMA and routing was built. • Worker nodes, gate nodes, and master nodes were all simulated. Neighborhood information of each node TDMA schedule & Routing tree Response time & Queue length Prowler with TDMA TDMA Scheduler

  42. Simulation Setup • Network topology • 4x6 grid (UCI), 5x10 grid (UND), and 10x10 grid (OSU) • Simulation scenarios • Heavy load: message demand of 1 packet per TDMA round • Average load: message demand of 1 packet per 2 TDMA rounds • Tracking of one moving target • Trajectory: one linear movement along one axis (OSU’s application model) • As long as a mote detects the target, it transmits one packet per TDMA round. • Packet losses due to buffer overflow • Evaluation metric: Worst-case response time

  43. Simulation Results

  44. Robust Messaging: Fundamental issues and strategies in “Red Force Tagging” What causes difficulties? (A) Node reliability (B) Node locations (incl uncertainty) (C) Channel characteristics (incl interference) Note: Power trivially solves all robustness (and latency) problems. So, for a meaningful problem, maximum power and average power must be bounded Notre Dame

  45. Difficulties I (A) Node reliability If failures are independent with failure rate p and nodes are uniformly randomly distributed with density λ, the node density is (1-p)λ (B) Node locations Perfectly known locations: The variance in internode distances results in varying link quality or stringent requirements for power control (in particular for nearest-neighbor routing) Uncertainty in positions: Can be viewed as uncertainty in the channel. Lifetime is an issue in irregular networks.

  46. Difficulties II (C) Channel characteristics Channel is unknown due to fading and interference (and localization errors) - Slow fading: obstacles, multipath geometry (lognormal) - Fast fading: mobility (Rayleigh, Rice) - Interference: makes channel estimation difficult (need to distinguish between noise and interference)Remark: Low path loss exponents are desirable in terms of power consumption. But the average per-node throughput goes to zero if =m in an m-dimensional network To achieve good scaling, we need high 

  47. Robust Messaging Strategies Techniques to achieve robustness: • Avoid random node placement. Deploy nodes regularly • No nearest-neighbor routing in random networks • Estimate link quality. Choose good links • Exploit time, frequency, and path diversity: * retransmissions (with implicit/explicit ACK); coding * frequency hopping or spread-spectrum * multipath routing; find backup routes • Reduce interference (good MAC, spread-spectrum, light traffic [high data rates], power control, directional transmission)

  48. Robust Messaging in Red Force Tagging Characteristics: Mobile Tagmote. Large amount of data. Only one connection active. Throughput is crucial. Approach: - Regular network topology - Always use maximum power - Use ARQ-N ACKnowledgments (increases throughput) - Keep track of number of “retries” for a link estimate - Maintain list of multiple next-hop neighbors (multi-tree structure) Achievable reliability: 90-100% with a goodput of 200bytes/s.
