Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have an ideal tactic for implementing the number of applications due to evading complex wirings connections and their maintenance. On the other hand, the main source of data communication in other networks is protocols. The Medium Access control Protocol defines when a wireless sensor (WS) transmits its recognizer data. However, MAC protocols suffer from collisions that ultimately affect the performance of WSNs. Consequently, care must be taken for improving the efficiency of medium access protocol. This paper presents a model of the Lightweight medium access protocol (LMAC) protocol, which is energy efficient protocol suitable to analyze the probability of collisions for SN (Sensor Nodes) when the data is transmitted at the same time. This paper we consider connected topologies that consist of 5 nodes. For analysis, we have used UMC PRO 0.2 (UPPAAL Model Checker Probabilistic) and results show that the chances of collisions decreases if the weight of nodes before they transmit data is increased. After that, we also compare the results of five nodes with their time slot 5, 6, and 7 depend on the chances of the collisions and suggest an optimistic choice of efficiency and also decrease the cost of networks a network set-up that improves the performance and reduces the cost of the network.
