CoZi: basic Coding for better Bandwidth Utilization in ZigBee Sensor Networks
Abstract
This paper describes CoZi, a new packet scheduling mechanism for large scale ZigBee networks. CoZi aims at enhancing the reliability of the data delivery and the bandwidth utilization of the network. Based on simple network coding, instead of the classic packet forwarding, our algorithm takes advantage of the shared nature of the wireless medium as well as the cluster-tree topology of IEEE 802.15.4 networks to increase the global throughput and to reduce transmissions in end-to-end and dissemination-based communications.
