IEEE 802.15.4e TSCH Mode Performance Analysis

Multiplexing data transmission in time and frequency is an alternative to medium contention in wireless networks. The IEEE 802.15.4e standard, and its Time Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) mode in particular, provides such possibility in the context of constrained devices, for instance wireless sensor networks. We analyze the performance of TSCH leveraging from a real implementation in emulated environment, assessing latency, delivery ratio and time to associate.
