Abstract

This paper proposes a framework enabling an adaptive duty cycling scheme for sensor networks that takes into account the operating duty cycle of the node, and application-level QoS requirements. We model the system as a Continuous Time Markov Chain (CTMC), and derive analytical expressions for key QoS metrics - such as latency, loss probability and power consumption. We then formulate and solve the optimal operating duty cycle as a non-linear optimization problem, using latency and loss probability as the constraints. Simulation results show that a Markovian duty cycling scheme can outperform periodic duty cycling schemes.
