[ Ba12] Is Multicast useful in Health Care Monitoring Systems?
Conférence Internationale avec comité de lecture : Wireless Advanced 2012 , June 2012, pp.5,Mots clés: wireless sensor networks, multicast, unicast
Résumé:
Health care monitoring is a technique for early
detection of numerous symptoms and illness. As a step forward
to ubiquitous monitoring, wireless sensor networks could be a
solution for health care monitoring. However, wireless sensor
networks do not support heavy load because they have limited
energy, short transmission range, low throughput and small memory
storage. In this paper, we are interested in multicast protocols
which can reduce the network load. We tested some multicast
and unicast routing protocols under a mixed mobility model for
health care using the NS-2 simulator in wireless sensor networks.
Our simulation results show that the Protocol for Unified Multicasting
Through Announcements (PUMA) performs better than
other routing protocols. However, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR)
is low because of the low throughput of IEEE 802.15.4.
