Abstract: WPAN using IEEE 802.15.4 protcol operated in non beaconing mode an attempt has made to find out the most significant factor of defacto parameters of IEEE 802.15.4 to enhance the performance by minimizing energy consumption and to enhance the network lifetime of the Wireless Personal Area Networks(WPAN). The factors include Buffer size, Beacon Interval, Back-off-transmission has an ideal impact on QoS metrics in IEEE 802.15.4 protocol. A Design of experiments have been simulated to an optimum level using the taguchi approach. The experimental results from the taguchi approach reveales that Back-of-transmission as the most significant factor for IEEE 802.15.4 in minimizing the power consumption in the WPAN.
Keywords: IEEE 802.15.4, Qos Metrics
