Opportunistic Carrier Sensing for Energy-Efficient Information Retrieval in Sensor Networks

<p/> <p>We consider distributed information retrieval for sensor networks with cluster heads or mobile access points. The performance metric used in the design is energy efficiency defined as the ratio of the average number of bits reliably retrieved by the access point to the total amou...
