Abstract Strip Wireless Sensor Networks (SWSNs) have drawn much attention in many
applications such as monitoring rivers, highways and coal mines. Packet delivery in
SWSN usually requires a large number of multi-hop transmissions which leads to long
transmission latency in low-duty-cycle SWSNs. Several pipeline scheduling schemes
have been proposed to reduce latency. However, when communication links are
unreliable, pipeline scheduling is prone to failure. In this paper, we propose a pipeline
scheduling transmission protocol based on constructive interference. The protocol first
divides the whole network into multiple partitions and uses a pipelined mechanism to
allocate active More >
