Root Cause Analysis of Congestion in Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract: In wireless sensor networks data, which get generated, is not always same; some data may be more important than others and having different priorities. As deployment sizes and data rates grow, congestion becomes a major problem in these networks. The congestion results in arbitrary dropping of data packets that reduce the overall network throughput. In this paper, we discuss the various parameters (root causes of congestion), which help us to avoid and control the congestion in the wireless sensor network. The… Show more

“…Otherwise it drops the packet because of buffer overflow. Due to the high dynamics of low-power wireless communications, limited resources of sensor nodes, and shared wireless communication medium, many-to-one data gathering pattern in wireless sensor networks can easily cause network congestion and a huge number of packet drops as the result of packet buffer overflow [10,15]. Therefore, to reduce the effects of network congestion on the data gathering performance, the CCPC mechanism is proposed in conjunction with the developed data gathering protocol.…”
