Abstract:
A method for dynamically managing wireless channels to minimize channel interference between heterogeneous wireless devices, and transmitting data by effectively using channels, is provided. Interference between heterogeneous wireless networks is avoided in a channel hopping mode, whereby a data transmission success rate of the wireless sensor network is enhanced, thus enhancing reliability of data transmission.
