Summary: This paper introduces a duty cycle correction scheme based on asynchronous sampling, which consumes less power and area compared to other correction circuits. However, the settling behavior of asynchronous sampling in some operation conditions is limited, degrading its robustness and performance.

Summary: We propose COFlood, a practical and efficient concurrent flooding protocol in asynchronous duty cycle networks. COFlood constructs a distributed concurrent flooding tree to select concurrent senders, covering the entire network while reserving capacity for opportunistic concurrent senders. It also utilizes early wake-up nodes and long lossy links to increase early receiving chances and speed up network flooding. Evaluation on two real testbeds shows that COFlood reduces completion time and energy consumption by up to 35.3% and 26.6%, respectively, compared to state-of-the-art protocols.

Summary: Many OR schemes neglect the diversity of network nodes and the impact of multiple network attributes on routing decisions. This paper proposes a novel protocol, FLORA, which addresses these issues by defining routing zones, prioritizing nodes, and selecting a final relay node. Experimental simulations demonstrate that FLORA outperforms its counterparts in terms of various performance metrics.

Summary: This paper presents IRIS, a lightweight cross-layer protocol designed for long-range pipeline wireless sensor networks with extremely low power budget. It includes network discovery, medium access control, and routing functions for heavily energy constrained networks. The protocol can operate with less than 1% duty cycle, conforming to ISM band regulations in the 868MHz band. Simulation results demonstrate guaranteed route formation in different network topologies with various protocol configurations.

Summary: The dynamic nature of energy harvesting rate in EH-WSNs raises new concerns and drives the development of energy aware solutions. A prediction-based adaptive duty cycle (PADC) MAC protocol, called PADC-MAC, has been proposed to improve network performance by incorporating current and future harvested energy information. The protocol utilizes a machine learning model, NAR neural network, to achieve accurate energy intake prediction. Simulation results show significant improvements in packet delay, energy consumption, and total energy consumption compared to state-of-the-art protocols.

Summary: It is crucial to provide an active path in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) to ensure timely delivery of data. The duty cycling mode poses challenges in scheduling and regulating node activity, as well as considering transmission delays. The coordination between MAC and routing protocols is necessary to make appropriate decisions for next hop selection and duty cycle adjustment.
