ABSTRACT
Cross-layer design has proven to be a promising approach to achieving optimal performance in wireless networks. However, care must be taken when designing cross-layer protocols and frameworks so as to avoid excessive complexity and loss of standardization. In this paper, we propose a cross-layer framework for wireless sensor networks which preserves modularity and clearly defines the inter-layer interactions allowing for ease of standardization and long-term development. This Central-Networked framework consists of the centered physical and centered application models.
