| Abstract | This study considers a highway wireless sensor network that is deployed along major highways as an infrastructure for supporting a wide range of traffic monitoring operations. Contrary to other low data rate wireless sensor networks, the highway sensor network is expected to carry rich media (e.g., video) with high throughput and low latency requirements. While line power is potentially available at selected locations of selected highways, it is expected most sensors will be individually solar-powered to enable practical implementation at large scales and flexible locations. The paper presents a set of centralized and distributed slotted transmission scheduling methods for IEEE 802.11 based sensor platforms. The methods divide sensors into groups based on their deployed road segment and optimize the bidirectional relay throughput, delay, and energy efficiency for each segment. The approach conforms well to the prevalent practice of placing traffic controllers at regular intersections. Based on local network topology, the methods utilize controllers to coordinate sensor transmission time slots with a pipelined, rotational, and load weighted approach. Simulations in ns-2 showed 20–40% higher throughput, 65–90% less energy, and similar delays compared to unscheduled IEEE 802.11 mesh networks. With multi-intersection coordination, we show that the distributed method was able to achieve 96% of the centralized method's throughput at much lesser communication overheads. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
