The discussions on this list led Kannan Srinivasan, one of the students working with me, to submit a paper to HotNets. It was just accepted. Given that the IETF is in two weeks, we probably won't have the camera-ready prepared by then, so the link below is for the submitted version. The title of the paper is "Some Implications of Low-Power Wireless to IP Routing." It examines the behavior of 802.15.4 using the ChipCon 2420 radio on common sensor node platforms. The four key observations are:

 o Links are predominantly bimodal for short packet bursts.
o Sporadic traffic observes intermediate links, which are due to SNR variations. o There are ETX asymmetries, which are larger over longer time intervals.
 o Acknowledgement failures are correlated.

I thought this community might find the paper helpful. It's 6 pages, so not a long read.

See you in San Diego...
