Modeling of Multihop Wireless Sensor Networks with MAC, Queuing, and Cooperation

We present a Markovian decision process (MDP) framework for multihop wireless sensor networks (MHWSNs) to bound the network performance of both energy constrained (EC) networks and energy harvesting (EH) networks, both with and without relay cooperation. The model provides the fundamental performanc...
