  • Abstract
    In this paper a cross layer design of the use of forward error correction (FEC) coding and the determination of the awake/sleep periods for narrowband wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is presented. This design takes into account, in a joint manner, the characteristics of the physical (PHY) and the medium access control (MAC) layers. The underlying goal is to illustrate and develop an approach that yields energy efficient designs. This study is carried out using analytical and simulation models
