Abstract: This work builds on MuChMAC, a dynamic
multi-channel MAC solution for low-power wireless sensor networks.
We present a distributed algorithm to scale MuChMAC's
duty cycle based on the amount of traffic passing through a node.
We have implemented this algorithm in Contiki and we have
evaluated its performance on a real testbed of Sentilla JCreate
wireless nodes. We demonstrate that it significantly improves
packet delivery performance MuChMAC under high traffic loads,
while preserving its low overhead under low traffic loads. External Link.
