On the Homogeneous Transmission Power under the SINR Model

Abstract

Power control is quite important in the field of wireless sensor networks. Many works adjust transmission power in order to either achieve significant improvement on packet reception or to save energy. Even though the use of non-homogeneous transmission power utilisation benefits is evident in the literature, we study cases where the use of homogeneous transmission powers across parts of the network may accomplish high Packet Reception Ratio. We show examples of the above and provide experimental results that show that reception of packets may be high in appropriate topologies or parts of the topology, with the use of the same transmission power level. We evaluate two topologies with and without the use of Clear Channel assessment to present our point.
