Abstract

In this chapter, we present a mathematical model to study the interplay between a decentralized detection task in clustered Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and the IEEE 802.15.4 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. In particular, the models introduced in Chaps. 2 and 5 are integrated, to develop a unique framework jointly accounting for MAC and distributed detection issues.

Notes

  1. 1.

    For the ease of clearness, in this section we refer to the generic scenario with noisy communication links. However, the same considerations apply in a scenario with ideal communication links, the only difference being that (7.1) has to be substituted by (7.2).

  2. 2.

    The symbol \({\varvec{{\fancyscript{D}}}}\) was used in Chap. 2 for a deterministic vector. With an abuse of notation, it now refers to a random vector. The context eliminates any ambiguity.

  3. 3.

    Note that, for the ease of clearness, in this chapter a slightly different notation is used with respect to that used in Chap. 2 to denote uniformly clustered topologies.

  4. 4.

    Note that \(n_{\rm c}=1\) denotes the topology with no clustering, that is only one cluster is present.
