Abstract

One of the most important requirements for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is the energy efficiency, since sensors are usually fed by a battery that cannot be replaced or recharged. Radio wake-up - the technology that lets a sensor completely turn off and be reactivated by converting the electromagnetic field of radio waves into energy - is now one of the most emergent strategies in the design of wireless sensor networks. This work presents Scheduled on Demand Radio WakeUp (SORW), a flexible scheduler designed for a wireless sensor network where duty cycling strategy and radio wake-up technology are combined in order to optimize the network lifetime. In particular, it tries to keep sensors sleeping as much as possible, still guaranteeing a minimum number of detections per unit of time. Performances of SORW are provided through the use of OMNet++ simulator and compared to results obtained by other basic approaches. Results show that with SORW it is possible to reach a theoretical lifetime of several years, compared to simpler schedulers that only reach days of activity of the network.
