Summary :

We analyze the performance of an opportunistic transmission strategy for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). We consider a transmission strategy called Binary Decision-Based Transmission (BDT), which is a common form of opportunistic transmission. The BDT scheme initiates transmission only when the channel quality exceeds the optimum threshold to avoid unsuccessful transmissions that waste energy. We formulate the Markov Decision Process (MDP) to identify an optimum threshold for transmission decisions in the BDT scheme.
