Abstract :
This paper presents a comprenhensive analysis of contention-based and contention-free MAC protocols of wireless sensor networks. The protocols are compared in terms of energy efficiency, latency in packet delivery, and control overhead. Simulation results of S-MAC (Sensor-MAC) and T-MAC (Timeout-MAC) protocols show average latency in packet delivery, as well as average consumption per node in certain wireless sensor network.
