The existing Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) scheduling methods for industrial emergency data under the conditions of asynchronous and multi-channel medium have the problems of high delay, saturated Control Channel (CC), and large energy consumption. To solve these problems, an Emergency data scheduling algorithm Oriented Asynchronous Multi-channel industrial wireless sensor networks, called EOAM, was proposed. First, the receiver-based strategy was adopted to solve the problem of saturated control channel during asynchronous multi-channel scheduling. Then a well-designed Special Channel (SC) together with the priority indication method was proposed to provide fast channel switch and real-time transmission of emergency data; additionally, the non-urgent data was allowed to occupy channel by a backoff-based mechanism indicated by the priority indication method, which could ensure the utilization of special channel. EOAM was suitable for both unicast and broadcast communications. The simulation results show that, compared with the Distributed Control Algorithm (DCA), the transmission delay of EOAM can reach 8 ms, the reliability is above 95%, and the energy consumption is reduced by 12.8%, which can meet the transmission requirements of industrial emergency data.
