Abstract

Nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are typically powered by batteries with limited energy capacity. They are often spread across large geographical areas and are costly to maintain. As stated in [1], wireless transmissions are the most power-hungry components in a WSN. For this reason, energy efficiency and awareness in synchronization and routing protocols can have a huge impact on the lifetime and maintenance cost of a WSN. In [2], Cooperative Power and Energy-efficient Routing Protocol (COPE) is presented, which is an advanced routing algorithm with high throughput. COPE combines network coding together with broadcast communica- tions to increase throughput. In my thesis, I aim to implement an energy-efficient flooding architecture based on COPE [2] which distributes packets in an encoded manner to minimize transmissions and reduce energy consumption. The flooding algorithm is embedded into a globally synchronized duty cycle and deployed on the ESP32 platform together with the underlying ESP NOW protocol. In the beginning of my thesis, comparable research papers on energy-efficient synchronization and routing protocols are reviewed. Subsequently, I describe hardware and software components on which the proposed implementation is built. In the main part of my thesis, the general architecture and key implementation features are presented. In the end, the performance of the synchronization and flooding protocol is tested and evaluated. It is acknowledged that simple broadcast protocols may outperform my proposed energy-efficient flooding architecture in a single network scenario, in which each node is in radio range to each other. However, when comparing it to multi-hop scenarios, it can significantly decrease the number of transmissions and therefore increase energy efficiency.
