Abstract(s)
Low-rate low-power consumption and low-cost
communication are the key points that lead to the specification of
the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. This paper overviews the technical
features of the physical layer and the medium access control sublayer
mechanisms of the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol that are most
relevant for wireless sensor network applications. We also
discuss the ability of IEEE 802.15.4 to fulfil the requirements of
wireless sensor network applications.
