Abstract
Energy harvesting has been recently proposed for wireless sensor networks to improve their energy efficiency and drastically reduce the maintenance costs of replacing batteries. However, energy harvesting is a stochastic process that imposes an energy availability constraint on the system design. Thus, traditional protocols and algorithms, including synchronization, communication, scheduling, and networking, will not be suitable for energy-harvesting wireless networks. Therefore, we propose a novel Time Division Multiplexing Algorithm for a single-hop energy-harvesting wireless sensor network. The algorithm synchronizes the nodes based on less frequent synchronization messages from the coordinator node. The algorithm is implemented on a network of four nodes—three nodes are senders while one node is a coordinator. Initial results show that the proposed algorithm reduces power consumption and improves message latency compared to the state-of-the-art.
