Modeling and Performance Analysis of a Node in Fault Tolerant Wireless Sensor Networks

We develop a separable model for a referenced node in a fault tolerant (disruption tolerant) wireless sensor network, which encompasses the message queue of the node and an inner and an outer environment for describing details of the transmission protocols. We prove that the system has steady state of product form for the queue and its environment. We discuss several modifications and the relation of our approach to that in previous papers in the literature.
