A method and an apparatus for assigning a time slot for transmitting a beacon in a wireless sensor network operated in a beacon mode are provided. In the method and apparatus for assigning a time slot according to the present invention, the total time slots assigned to the network are divided into N blocks and a node to which a time slot is exclusively assigned, among nodes to which a specific node is capable of directly and wirelessly transmitting, is selected as a parent node, the network is divided into two or more regions centering the parent node, a block having the time slot assigned to the parent node and adjacent blocks, among the N blocks, are respectively assigned to the regions, a time slot having been yet unassigned, among the time slots belonging to the block assigned to the region to which the specific node belongs among the divided regions, is assigned as the time slot of the specific node.

Provided is a cross-layer routing method in a wireless sensor network including: locating a destination node which is a final destination of data by a source node which generates the data; and determining an optimal relay node among one or more neighboring nodes using their position information for each hop and forwarding the data from the source node to the destination node through the determined relay nodes. Therefore, an effective and stable routing which reduces overheads of additional control messages used for stable data forwarding and reduces collisions in a shared channel by using wireless link layer characteristics can be implemented.

Provided are a coordinator in a wireless sensor network (WSN) which can improve transmission performance and prevent data loss, and a method of operating the coordinator. The method includes: scanning a transmitted beacon and storing information on a channel included in the beacon; when it is determined that a home channel communicating with a parent node is in an inactive mode on the basis of the information on the channel, in synchronization with the activation of another channel of the same hierarchical level as that of the home channel, activating a home channel communicating with a child node and communicating with the child node; and communicating with the child node through an auxiliary channel that has a frequency band different from those of the home channel communicating with the child node and home channels of other nodes and is always in an active mode.

A time synchronization method in a wireless sensor network, a low power routing method using a reservation scheme, and an apparatus for performing the method are provided. The time synchronization method in the wireless sensor network may include: receiving a first synchronization request command packet from a parent node that manages time synchronization for a predetermined synchronization region; receiving, from the parent node, a second synchronization request command packet that has a transmission timestamp value of the first synchronization request command packet; and performing time synchronization for a child node based on a reception time of the first synchronization request command packet, a reception time of the second synchronization request command packet, and the transmission timestamp value of the first synchronization request command packet.

Provided is a method of supporting node portability in a sensor network, wherein data transmission to a portable node can be guaranteed since even when the portable node is assigned with a different address by being associated with another network, the newly assigned address is transmitted to a parent node or a sink node that was previously associated with the portable node.
摘要:
Provided is a method of minimizing power consumed by each node in a wireless network when communicating with neighboring nodes.Unlike a conventional synchronous media access control (MAC), the present invention suggests an asynchronous MAC. Thus, the active duration of a node extends only when transmitting a large quantity of data and the extended active duration returns to the minimum active duration again after completing the data transmission.

Provided is a method for routing a message in a wireless network based on relay probability. The method allows dynamic delivery of a message by calculating the relay probability of each node for message transmission, measuring the strength of a beacon signal received from a destination node, and determining a node that will relay a message based on the relay probability and the strength of beacon signal.

Provided are a method and apparatus for efficiently performing routing in a wireless sensor network having a tree-hierarchical structure, the method and apparatus reducing the number of hops required for transmitting data. According to the method and apparatus, a node is determined as a proximal node from among nodes within range of a wireless signal of a transmission node, wherein the node is a node having the smallest difference from among differences between each of address values of the nodes within the range and an address value of a target node, and data is directly transmitted from the transmission node to the proximal node.

Provided are a coordinator, a gateway, and a transmission method for applying IPv6 in a wireless sensor network (WSN). Dual addressing of a link local address using a short address used in the WSN and a global unicast address using an extended unique identifier (EUI) of a node makes it possible to support mobility of the WSN and communicate data with an external network.
