A regional positioning method and apparatus in a wireless sensor network (WSN) is provided. The regional positioning method in a WSN, the regional positioning method including: setting a locating premise in the WSN based on a signal strength of an anchor node; sensing an event where a sensor node, installed in a target and called a target node, joins the WSN; detecting a locating premise where the target node is located based on the sensing of the event; and recognizing a location of the target based on the detected locating premise.

Provided is a method of managing addresses of incommunicable nodes in a ZigBee network, and more particularly, a method of managing address values of a plurality of nodes that form a ZigBee network by efficiently withdrawing address values from nodes which are incommunicable for reasons of abnormality. An address management process can be performed using two methods. According to a first method, a parent node withdraws address values of child nodes that do not transmit a hello message for a predetermined period of time. According to a second method, a parent node transmits a periodic or non-periodic request message to child nodes, and the child nodes, which receive the request message, immediately transmit a hello message to the parent node. Then, the parent node withdraws address values of child nodes that do not respond to the request message sent by the parent node more than a predetermined number of times. An address value assignment process and a process for nodes that have their address values withdrawn are also provided.

Disclosed are a method and system for connecting lower nodes to one another to increase scalability in a ZigBee network. The method includes approving a participation request to excess lower nodes requesting participation in higher nodes where network addresses set with respect to the higher nodes are allocated to all of the lower nodes; when a transmission message is received from the excess lower nodes, analyzing the received transmission message and determining a node for transmitting the transmission message; and transmitting the transmitted transmission message to the determined node.

Provided is a Media Access Control (MAC) technology that may improve a data transmission performance in an asynchronous sensor network. The MAC technology may increase a waked-up time interval of a reception node to thereby continue to receive traffic from a transmission node, and change a frequency band where data is transmitted and received to thereby reduce occurrence of collision. Also, when the wake-up time interval of the reception node is similar to a wake-up time of a neighboring node, the wake-up time interval of the reception node may be moved to another time interval, thereby improving the data transmission performance.

Provided are a sensor node of a low power for a monitoring application in a mesh sensor network using a time division access scheme, and a routing method thereof. The routing method of the sensor node may include: transmitting a beacon containing routing information to neighboring nodes in a first time slot within a first beacon interval that is allocated to the sensor node; and receiving a beacon from each of the neighboring nodes in a second time slot within a second beacon interval that is allocated to each of the neighboring nodes.

Provided is a communication apparatus and method for enhancing a reliability in a low power time division access scheme of a sensor network. The communication method may include: transmitting, by a first sensor node, a Media Access Control (MAC) frame to a second sensor node in a first time slot that is allocated to the first sensor node; and receiving, by the first sensor node, a response frame with respect to the MAC frame from the second sensor node in a second time slot that is allocated to the second sensor node.
摘要:
A mobile terminal in a sensor network selects one of the sensors nodes in the sensor network as an upstream agent, and piggybacks a list of neighboring sensor nodes found in the upstream agent selection process on an upstream packet and transmits the upstream packet to a gateway through the upstream agent. The gateway in the sensor network selects one of the neighboring sensor nodes as a downstream agent using state information of the neighboring sensor nodes in the list, and transmits a downstream packet to the mobile terminal through the selected downstream agent.
