Abstract :
The design of wireless embedded systems for realtime applications requires a careful management of timing and energy requirements. This paper describes a wireless communication protocol that can guarantee both message deadlines and system lifetime by properly allocating the network bandwidth to each node. The protocol allows multi-hop wireless communication under different network topologies. The proposed approach is validated through both theoretical and experimental results.
