| Summary: | In wireless sensor networks, data messages containing sensor data achieved by a sensor module in a wireless sensor node is transmitted to a stationary wireless sink node along a wireless multihop transmission route in which wireless sensor nodes themselves forward the data messages. Each intermediate wireless sensor node broadcast data messages in its wireless transmission range to forward them to its next-hop intermediate wireless sensor node. Hence, eavesdropper wireless nodes within the wireless transmission range easily overhear the data messages. In order to interfere with the eavesdropper wireless nodes illegally overhearing the data messages in transmission, wireless sensor nodes whose wireless transmission ranges overlap and their next-hop intermediate wireless sensor nodes are out of the wireless transmission ranges each other forward data messages in transmission concurrently and cause collisions between these two data messages at any possible eavesdropper wireless nodes intentionally. To enhance regions where concurrently forwarded data messages intentionally collide to prevent their overhearing and to realize concurrent forwarding of data messages, this paper designes an algorithm for TDMA transmission slot assignments for more opportunities to interfere the eavesdropper wireless nodes.
