A clustering method of a wireless sensor network is provided to minimize energy consumption. The clustering method includes the operations of determining a number of initial nodes within radio range of ordinary node, the ordinary nodes existing within radio range of a cluster head, and setting an ordinary node having a highest number of initial nodes among the ordinary nodes in the radio range of the cluster head, as a gateway. Because the number of usually large energy consuming cluster heads and gateways can be minimized, energy efficiency of wireless sensor network increases.

Clustering method of wireless sensor network for minimized energy consumption

A data slot allocation method for a stream delivery in an ultra wide band (UWB) wireless personal area network (WPAN) based on an ad-hoc network of a distributed network topology. The number of data slots allocable to each stream, including a new stream, to be transferred is calculated. The necessary data slots are relinquished to the new stream from existing streams when the number of the allocable data slots is less than a number of preset data slots of the new stream.
