Abstract:
Energy efficiency is a critical design issue in wireless sensor networks. In order to analyze the energy consumption of a single node, a system model of networked wireless sensors is thus required. Based on a Petri net framework, this paper has proposed a systematic approach to the modeling and measurement of energy consumption for ZigBee-equipped sensors. Moreover, an experiment has been conducted to measure the realistic power consumption and to provide input parameters to the Petri net model. The comparative results show that the Petri net model has successfully approximated the real measurement. It is believed that the technique presented in this paper could be further applied to complex and non-periodic operations in wireless sensor networks.
