Performance of a novel self-organization protocol for wireless ad-hoc sensor networks

The paper presents an ad-hoc architecture for wireless sensor networks and other wireless systems similar to them. In this class of wireless system the physical resource at premium is energy. Bandwidth available to the system is in excess of system requirements. The approach to solve the problem of ad-hoc network formation here is to use available bandwidth in order to save energy. The method introduced solves the problem of connecting an ad-hoc network. This algorithm gives procedures for the joint formation of a time schedule (similar to a TDMA schedule) and activation of links therein for random network topologies. This self-organization method is energy-sensitive, distributed, scalable, and able to form a connected network rapidly
