ABSTRACT

There is an uprising trend of enabling the smaller and sensitive information network to capitalize its worthiness using the Wireless Sensor Network. The various Network protocols can be implemented in order to achieve user specific need of sensing, gathering, processing and transmission of information among the sensor nodes. This paper is an attempt to analyze the various MAC layer protocol scenario implemented for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) in a given environment. The experimental simulation is based on Mica Mote Energy model being simulated under QualNet. Many of the protocols varies from their performance metrics and the deployment size and application area. A discussion of energy conservation involved in the network, the packet transfer ratio and its effect on the signaling strength is reflected
