Competition: interference-aware multi-channel cross layer protocol for energy-efficient and low-delay networking

Abstract

This document aims to present the general ideas and methodology that are planned to be used for the EWSN 2016 Dependability Competition by the Wireless Networks Group of Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya. We designed, developed and conducted performance tests based on the approach detailed in this extended abstract, with the target of optimizing the metrics of each of the evaluation criteria (i.e. reliability of the sent data, end-to-end latency and energy consumption). The current approach will be evaluated and improved further until the competition day.
