Design of Link-Quality-prediction-based Software-Defined Wireless Sensor Networks
share
In wireless multi-hop networks, the instability of the wireless links leads to unstable networking. Even in the newly designed Software-Defined Wireless Sensor Networks (SDWSN), similar problems exist. To further improve the stability of SDWSN, we introduce a Link Quality (LQ) prediction model into the SDWSN architecture. The prediction model is used to improve the stability between neighbor nodes, and thus the stability of wireless multi-hop routes. Simulation results show that the LQ prediction model can make reasonable corrections to the reality wireless link model, which can well address the restrictive nature of unstable links. As a result, by reducing the use of unstable wireless links, the stability of the SDWSN network improved.
