Abstract:
The advancement in technology for battlefields, irrigation, hospitals, schools need some improvement in the surveillance of these areas. This task has become feasible after easy availability of low cost hardware that forms a sensor network. In order to cover large areas, large number of sensors is to be deployed; this needs collaboration of sensors with each other. In this paper, MAC protocols to prolong network lifetime are presented along with their classification and comparison are described.
