Performance Analyses and Improvements for IEEE 802.15.4 CSMA/CA Scheme in Wireless Multihop Sensor Networks Based on HTC Algorithm

Most of analyses for the IEEE 802.15.4 Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) scheme for multi-hop wireless sensor networks (WSNs) focus on how to avoid the impacts of hidden terminal problems rather than how to derive the exact multi-hop characters. In this paper, we propo...
