Abstract
Emerging applications of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) often rely on generation and collection of heterogenous data. In various application scenarios of WSN such as health care and surveillance, the data needs to be prioritized for timely actions. This paper offers a comparison of two MAC schemes Priority-MAC and FROG-MAC that have been developed to deal with heterogeneous traffic in WSN; Priority-MAC was designed based on differentiated TDMA slot allocation for traffic of different priorities, whereas FROG-MAC proposed to transmit traffic of low priority in fragments in order to earlier transmit the high priority data. Traffic of two priorities (urgent and normal) has been used for simulations over 30 nodes in a single-hop environment. Maximum and average delay of both protocols have been compared. It has been found that FROG-MAC serves better as compared to Priority-MAC due to no requirement of waiting for complete transmission of low priority packets. Furthermore, the influence of varying network and fragment size over delay of urgent traffic in FROG-MAC has also been studied
