Wireless sensor network relay transmitting using dual buffer pools.

In the multi hop communication of wireless sensor networks, relay stations are used to realize remote transmission. In order to avoid the air data repeating collision problem and multi-path retransmission problem of wireless signals sent by relay nodes, this paper proposes a relaying algorithm using dual buffer pool. The node buffer pool is added in the node to store the package source identifier and packet count pairs, the package buffer pool is added to the package to store paths in transmission. First, after the package is received from radio, the node compares the pairs of the SID and Count in the node buffer pool with the pairs of the package source identifier and package count in the package. If there are pairs, the package is discarded, otherwise the package source identifier and package count are added into the node buffer pool. Next step, if the node identifier is equal to the destination byte DID in package, the package will be processed in the node and terminated transmission, otherwise the package will be continued to process. Then the node compares the node identifier with the package buffer pool bytes. If there is the node identifier in the package pool, the package will be discarded, otherwise the relay node stores its own node identifier into the packet buffer pool to create a new package and transmit forwards. The algorithm is implemented on CC2530 chip and relaying experiments of wireless sensor network are carried out. The results show that the algorithm can achieve relay forwarding and avoid duplicating forwarding data collision and avoid multipaths duplicate forwarding. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
