Abstract
In ad hoc networks, it
is considered that mesh structure topology can achieve
high communication reliability. However, since the power
consumption in an ad hoc network of the mesh
configuration becomes large, it is an important research
topic to control it. In efforts to develop a method for
controlling such power consumption, this research
targets a network in which communication starts when
multiple receiver nodes transmit their own IDs
intermittently and a transmitting node receives them.
However, the basic characteristics of an ad hoc mesh
network constructed using this method is not yet clear.
Therefore, in this study we clarify, by simulation, the
influence that parameter values which determine
operation of the system have on basic system properties,
such as data collection rate, average delay, and power
consumption. Furthermore, we show that the power
consumption of the whole node which performed load
sharing is reducible about 10% by setting up an
intermittent cycle individually according to the load
for every node.
