Moreover, there are two critical mechanisms to guarantee the dependability of the protocol, i.e., the channel-hopping and the network initiation. The Dependable Concurrent Transmission-based protocol (DeCoT) performs effectively in the past competitions where an event was represented as a tiny payload. Variable lengths of payloads and dynamic traffic loads are new challenges appearing in the EWSN 2019 Dependability Competition. A Consistency Strategy and a Network Coding (ConNec) are functional to overcome the challenges. Therefore, we propose DeCoT+, DeCoT with ConNeC, that oughts to work effectively in a dynamic (heavy or light) traffic loads under interference. Besides, the network coding strategy could improve the reliability of the network, where nodes communicate with long packets, e.g., 64 bytes.}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2019 International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks}, pages = {290–291}, numpages = {2}, location = {Beijing, China}, series = {EWSN '19} }
