摘要

Mobile sensor nodes can be used for a wide variety of applications such as social networks and location tracking. An important requirement for all such applications is that the mobile nodes need to actively discover their neighbors with minimal energy and latency. Nodes in mobile networks are not necessarily synchronized with each other, making the neighbor discovery problem all the more challenging. In this paper, we propose a neighbor discovery protocol called U-Connect, which achieves neighbor discovery at minimal and predictable energy costs while allowing nodes to pick dissimilar duty-cycles. We provide a theoretical formulation of this asynchronous neighbor discovery problem, and evaluate it using the power-latency product metric. We analytically establish that U-Connect is an 1.5-approximation algorithm for the symmetric asynchronous neighbor discovery problem, whereas existing protocols like Quorum and Disco are 2-approximation algorithms. We evaluate the performance of U-Connect and compare the performance of U-Connect with that of existing neighbor discovery protocols. We have implemented U-Connect on our custom portable FireFly Badge hardware platform. A key aspect of our implementation is that it uses a slot duration of only 250/xs, and achieves orders of magnitude lower latency for a given duty cycle compared to existing schemes for wireless sensor networks. We provide experimental results from our implementation on a network of around 20 sensor nodes. Finally, we also describe a Friend-Finder application that uses the neighbor discovery service provided by U-Connect.
