Abstract
Energy Harvesting (EH) provides a promising solution to
one of the biggest problems faced by Wireless Sensor Net-
works (WSN), namely the energy supply. By harvesting en-
ergy from the surrounding environment, the sensors can have
an innite lifetime without any needs for battery recharge or
replacement. Battery-powered WSNs are typically designed
to maximize the energy conservation in order to postpone as
much as possible the inevitable battery depletion. Instead,
EH-WSNs are being designed on a dierent principle. The
focus is on maximizing the network performance while op-
erating at a state that is energetically sustainable. In this
paper, we present ODMAC, an on demand MAC protocol for
EH-WSNs which is able to support individual duty cycles
for nodes with dierent energy proles. Hence, each node
is able to increase its energy consumption, thus its perfor-
mance, to the level that the energy consumed is at the same
level to the energy harvested. The protocol is implemented
and evaluated using the OPNET simulator [7].
