Abstract
In recent years, the efficient design of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has become one of the fundamental fields of research. These networks are made up of a large number of sensor nodes characterized by a limited amount of resources so, the energy aspect is a key point in their development. MAC protocols play an important role in energy management, trying to minimize overhead of the physical layer reducing the energy wasted in preamble transmission. In this paper, we have implemented two different MAC protocols on various scenarios of WSNs by using OMNeT++ simulator in combination with INET framework. Our experiments show a comparison between two MAC protocols in terms of received packets and power consumption among networks’ nodes.
