This paper studies the challenging problem of energy minimization for data gathering over a multiple-sources single-sink communication substrate in wireless sensor networks by exploring the energy-latency tradeoffs using rate adaptation techniques. We consider a real-time scenario for mission-critical applications, where the data gathering must. be performed within a specified latency constraint. We first propose an offline numerical optimization algorithm with performance analysis for a special case with a complete binary data gathering tree. Then, by discretizing the transmission time, we present a simple, distributed on-line protocol that relies only on the local information available at each sensor node. Extensive simulations were conducted for both, long and short-range communication scenarios using two different source placement models. We used the baseline of transmitting all packets at the highest speed and shutting down the radios afterwards. Our simulation results show that compared with this baseline, up to 90% energy savings can be achieved by our techniques (both off-line and on-line), under different settings of several key system parameters.
