Hi, I'm not sure whether TinyOS really suitable for your application. The WSN in TinyOS is used to monitoring vast area, long period (1min - 1day/sampling), and long term (6 months until years without replacing the battery). 200 ms probably is very fast (though it's not the fastest one).
Anyway, I think you can reduce the delay, by reducing the Matlab's serial buffer.
