An Efficient Transmission Scheduling and Synchronization Algorithm for Border Node Problem in Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

Recent developments in wireless technology have provided rapid progress in real time wireless sensor network technology, for time critical applications such wearable health care devices weather prediction and traffic monitoring etc. the communication in wireless networks is much difficult than wired networks, because of complexity in synchronization caused by wireless environment such as non-visibility etc. hence they have greater packet loss, traffic congestion and uneven load distribution which causes specific (especially border nodes) which quickly drains the power of these nodes. To withstand with such situations this paper presents an efficient scheduling algorithm which maintain the synchronization and manages transmission schedule among the nodes thus it provides better quality of service and uniform load distribution. The presented system maintains the synchronization by taking into account the congestion situation like packets remaining in the transmitting queue in the nodes and the searching for new available nodes. Simulation results verifies the better performance of the proposed protocol.
