Diagnosing the Weakest Link in WSN Testbeds: A Reliability and Cost Analysis
"... Abstract—This paper highlights and characterizes the main obstacle to deploying a robust wireless sensor network testbed: the USB connections that link each of the nodes via ethernet gateways to the central server. Unfortunately, these connections are also the components that, when properly installe ..."

Title Do we really need A Priori Link Quality Estimation?
, 2013
"... Traditionally, link quality estimation (LQE) has been viewed as an a priori step in sensor network routing protocols because it filters out unreliable links before data transmission. Recent results, however, show that protocols can perform well without a priori LQE. Because getting rid of LQE seems ..."

1Link Estimation and Routing in Sensor Network Backbones: Beacon-based or Data-driven?
"... Abstract — In the context of IEEE 802.11b network testbeds, we examine the differences between unicast and broadcast link properties, and we show the inherent difficulties in precisely estimating unicast link properties via those of broadcast beacons even if we make the length and transmission rate ..."

of beacons be the same as those of data packets. To circumvent the difficulties in link estimation, we propose to estimate unicast link properties directly via data traffic itself without using periodic beacons. To this end, we design a data-driven routing protocol Learn on the Fly (LOF). LOF chooses routes
1Compressive Link Acquisition in Multiuser Communications
"... Abstract—An important receiver operation is to detect the presence specific preamble signals with unknown delays in the presence of scattering, Doppler effects and carrier offsets. This task, referred to as “link acquisition”, is typically a sequential search over the transmitted signal space. Recen ..."

On Modeling Low-Power Wireless Protocols Based on Synchronous Packet Transmissions
"... Abstract—Mathematical models play a pivotal role in understanding and designing advanced low-power wireless systems. However, the distributed and uncoordinated operation of traditional multi-hop low-power wireless protocols greatly complicates their accurate modeling. This is mainly because these pr ..."

Bernoulli trials—a common assumption in protocol modeling but often illegitimate for LT—is largely valid for ST. We then show how this finding simplifies
Alteration of organic matter during infaunal polychaete gut passage and links to sediment organic geochemistry. Part I: Amino acids
, 2012
"... Abstract Of the factors which control the quantity and composition of organic matter (OM) buried in marine sediments, the links between infaunal ingestion and gut passage and sediment geochemistry have received relatively little attention. This study aimed to use feeding experiments and novel isoto ..."
