We consider the channel assignment problem in multi-channel wireless sensor networks for maximizing the network lifetime. We assume a data collection traffic pattern where all nodes forward data periodically to a sink and propose a distributed channel selection scheme that tries to maximize the lifetime of the nodes by controlling the energy consumption from overhearing. Some initial experimental results are included to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
