Duty-Cycled Wireless Sensor Networks: Wakeup Scheduling, Routing, and Broadcasting

In order to save energy consumption in idle states, low duty-cycled operation is widely used in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), where each node periodically switches between sleeping mode and awake mode. Although efficient toward saving energy, duty-cycling causes many challenges, such as difficult...
