概要 Wireless sensor nodes are becoming more and more common in various settings and require a long battery life for better maintainability. Since most sensor nodes are powered by batteries, energy efficiency is a critical problem. In an experiment, we observed that when peak power consumption is high, battery voltage drops quickly, and the sensor stops working even though some useful charge remains in the battery. We propose three off-line algorithms that extend battery life by scheduling sensors' execution time that is able to reduce peak power consumption as much as possible under a deadline constraint. We also developed a simulator to evaluate the effectiveness of these algorithms. The simulation results showed that one of the three algorithms dramatically can extend battery life approximately three time as long as in simultaneous sensor activation.
