Typically, only packets with the same destination are aggregated along the routing path and these packets are sent by unicast. While this is adequate for traditional multipoint-to-point sensor network applications, this is not suitable when wireless sensor nodes are connected in a full mesh topology, as isthe case in the Internet of Things. In these full mesh topologies, queues will be filled with packets with many different destinations, which limits the aggregation possibilities. Furthermore, the Quality of Service level will decrease since packets have to wait longer to find aggregation candidates. Therefore, in this paper, we propose to use broadcast aggregation that can aggregate packets independent of their destination. Broadcast aggregation is analyzed through simulations against unicast aggregation and no aggregation. Results show that energy can be reduced up to 13% compared with unicast aggregation and up to 27% compared with no aggregation. In terms of reliability, the Quality of Service is improved up to 15% compared with unicast aggregation and up to 23% compared with no aggregation. The delay on its turnis decreased by 52% compared with unicast aggregation. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/383678","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,9]],"date-time":"2014-03-09T21:01:29Z","timestamp":1394398889000},"page":"383678","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Broadcast Aggregation to Improve Quality of Service in Wireless Sensor Networks"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Evy","family":"Troubleyn","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology (INTEC), Ghent University-iMinds, Gaston Crommenlaan 8, Bus 201, 9050 Ghent, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jeroen","family":"Hoebeke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology (INTEC), Ghent University-iMinds, Gaston Crommenlaan 8, Bus 201, 9050 Ghent, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ingrid","family":"Moerman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology (INTEC), Ghent University-iMinds, Gaston Crommenlaan 8, Bus 201, 9050 Ghent, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Piet","family":"Demeester","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Information Technology (INTEC), Ghent University-iMinds, Gaston Crommenlaan 8, Bus 201, 9050 Ghent, Belgium"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.comnet.2006.10.002"},{"key":"B2-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/MWC.2007.358967"},{"journal-title":"Wireless Networks","year":"2013","author":"Troubleyn E.","key":"B3-2014-383678"},{"first-page":"31","volume-title":"Proceedings of the 8th GI\/ITG KuVS Fachgespr\u00e4ch \u201cSensor Networks\u201d","author":"Christin D.","key":"B5-2014-383678"},{"key":"B6-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/COMST.2006.283821"},{"first-page":"156","volume-title":"Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Advanced Communication Technology: ICT for Green Growth and Sustainable Development (ICACT '10)","author":"Jeong J.","key":"B7-2014-383678"},{"key":"B8-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TPDS.2006.114"},{"key":"B9-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4236\/wsn.2009.13029"},{"key":"B10-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/AICCSA.2005.1387152"},{"first-page":"250","volume-title":"Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys '04)","author":"Nath S.","key":"B11-2014-383678"},{"key":"B12-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/SAINT.2006.20"},{"key":"B13-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1145\/844128.844142"},{"key":"B14-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/SAHCN.2006.288516"},{"key":"B15-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1145\/993396.993406"},{"key":"B16-2014-383678","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/jsan2020235"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1155\/2014\/383678","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1155\/2014\/383678","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1155\/2014\/383678","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,16]],"date-time":"2021-05-16T16:25:17Z","timestamp":1621182317000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1155\/2014\/383678"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,1]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1155\/2014\/383678"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2014\/383678","relation":{},"ISSN":["1550-1477","1550-1477"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1550-1477"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1550-1477"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,1]]}}}
