Data transmission from sensor nodes to a base station or a sink node often incurs significant energy consumption, which critically affects network lifetime. We generalize and solve the problem of deploying multiple base stations to maximize network lifetime in terms of two different metrics under one-hop and multihop communication models. In the one-hop communication model, the sensors far away from base stations always deplete their energy much faster than others. We propose an optimal solution and a heuristic approach based on the minimal enclosing circle algorithm to deploy a base station at the geometric center of each cluster. In the multihop communication model, both base station location and data routing mechanism need to be considered in maximizing network lifetime. We propose an iterative algorithm based on rigorous mathematical derivations and use linear programming to compute the optimal routing paths for data transmission. Simulation results show the distinguished performance of the proposed deployment algorithms in maximizing network lifetime.

Energy issue is one of the most important problems in wireless sensor networks. They consist of low-power sensor nodes and a few base station nodes. They must be adaptive and efficient in data transmission to sink in various areas. This paper proposes an aware-routing protocol based on clustering and recursive search approaches. The paper focuses on the energy efficiency issue with various measures such as prolonging network lifetime along with reducing energy consumption in the sensor nodes and increasing the system reliability. Our proposed protocol consists of two phases. In the first phase (network development phase), the sensors are placed into virtual layers. The second phase (data transmission) is related to routes discovery and data transferring so it is based on virtual-based Classic-RBFS algorithm in the lake of energy problem environments but, in the nonchargeable environments, all nodes in each layer can be modeled as a random graph and then begin to be managed by the duty cycle method. Additionally, the protocol uses new topology control, data aggregation, and sleep/wake-up schemas for energy saving in the network. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol is optimal in the network lifetime and packet delivery parameters according to the present protocols.

Abstract. The ad hoc network (or MANET, for Mobile Ad hoc NETwork) is a system containing a set of devices that organize themselves, thus forming an autonomous and dynamic network, communicating via radio interface. These devices can be fixed or mobile, no wired infrastructure is available, and so these objects have to dynamically discover their environment.The design of these applications is based on trust between the nodes constituting the network. Unfortunately, when deploying randomly in difficult hostile areas, seeing impossible to monitor, not to mention the uncertainty of the communication channel, the sensor nodes are exposed to all types of attacks and intrusions, which can hinder and prevent the diffusion of the information between the sensor nodes of the network, and influencing its performance.Many approaches have been proposed to solve security problems in wireless networks. The solutions can be mainly classified into two categories: symmetric and asymmetric key management schemes. Indeed it is clear, that the optimal solution in this case is to use symmetric shared key systems.In this paper, the idea of LEAP improved is to apply the same Mechanisms used in LEAP Enhanced to overcome a compromised node and also prevent a compromised base station node while using a multiple base station network, this will, on the one hand, minimize power consumption, and secondly, to replace a base station in the event of a compromise, to ensure the continuity and proper functioning of the network. The evaluation of the proposed solution was carried out using the TOSSIM simulation tool.

The sensor nodes help in sensing the data and then it will transmit it to sink. The Base station will produce a significant amount of energy while accessing the sensing data and transmitting data. High energy is required to move towards base station when sensing and transmitting data. WSN possesses significant challenges like saving energy and extending network lifetime.

A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a component with sensor nodes that continuously observes environmental circumstances. Sensor nodes accomplish different key operations like sensing temperature and distance. It has been used in many applications like computing, signal processing, and network selfconfiguration to expand network coverage and build up its scalability. The Unit of all these sensors that exhibit sensing and transmitting information will offer more information than those offered by autonomously operating sensors. Usually, the transmitting task is somewhat critical as there is a huge amount of data and sensors devices are restricted. Being the limited number of sensor devices the network is exposed to different types of attacks. The Traditional security mechanisms are not suitable for WSN as they are generally heavy and having limited number of nodes and also these mechanisms will not eliminate the risk of other attacks. WSN are most useful in different crucial domains such as health care, environment, industry, and security, military. For example, in a military operation, a wireless sensor network monitors various activities. If an event is detected, these sensor nodes sense that and report the data to the primary (base) station (called sink) by making communication with other nodes. To collect data from WSN base Stations are commonly used. Base stations have more resources (e.g. computation power and energy) compared to normal sensor nodes which include more or less such limitations. Aggregation points will gather the data from neighboring sensor nodes to combine the data and forward to master (base) stations, where the data will be further forwarded or processed to a processing center. In this manner, the energy can be preserved in WSN and the lifetime of network is expanded.

Conventional wired body sensor networks have been used in hospitals over the last decade; however, the tethered operation restricts the mobility of the patients. In the scenario considered in this chapter, the signals collected from the patients’ bodies are wirelessly transmitted to a base station, and then delivered to a remote diagnosis centre through a communication infrastructure, enabling full mobility of the patient in the coverage area of the wireless network. Healthcare applications require the network to satisfy demanding requirements in terms of quality of service (QoS) and, at the same time, minimize the energy consumption of the sensor nodes. The traffic generated by data-intensive healthcare applications may lead to frequent collisions between sensor nodes and the consequent loss of data, if conventional MAC protocols for wireless sensor networks are used. Therefore, this chapter presents LPRT and CCMAC, two MAC protocols that intend to satisfy the QoS requirements of these applications, but differ in the wireless topology used. Experimental results for an implementation of the LPRT using an IEEE 802.15.4 compliant wireless sensor platform are presented, as well as simulation results comparing the performance of direct communication (between wireless body sensor nodes and the base station) with two other approaches relying on a cluster-based topology (similar to the one proposed by the authors of LEACH), which demonstrate the benefits of using a cluster-based topology on wireless healthcare applications.

Clustering Protocol

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) include several sensor nodes that have limited capabilities. The most critical restriction in WSNs is energy resources. Moreover, since each sensor node’s energy resources cannot be recharged or replaced, it is inevitable to propose various methods for managing the energy resources. Furthermore, this procedure increases the network lifetime. In wireless sensor networks, the cluster head has a significant impact on system global scalability, energy efficiency, and lifetime. Furthermore, the cluster head is most important in combining, aggregating, and transferring data that are received from other cluster nodes. One of the substantial challenges in a cluster-based network is to choose a suitable cluster head. In this paper, to select an appropriate cluster head, we first model this problem by using multi-factor decision-making according to the four factors, including energy, mobility, distance to centre, and the length of data queues. Then, we use the Cluster Splitting Process (CSP) algorithm and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method in order to provide a new method to solve this problem. These four factors are examined in our proposed approach, and our method is compared with the Base station Controlled Dynamic Clustering Protocol (BCDCP) algorithm. The simulation results show the proposed method in improving the network lifetime has better performance than the base station controlled dynamic clustering protocol algorithm. In our proposed method, the energy reduction is almost 5% more than the BCDCP method, and the packet loss rate in our proposed method is almost 25% lower than in the BCDCP method.

Strip-based sensor networks consist of a large amount of sensor nodes, which is characterized by multihop communication patterns. The nodes closer to the base station are required to forward more data than the nodes farther from the base station, leading to the problem of the energy hole and leaving the the areas of the network unmonitored. This paper analyzes energy consumption model of the uniform deployment and the nonuniform deployment and proves that there is an optimal transmission distance for these deployment strategies. The analysis shows clearly that the nonuniform deployment is more energy effect and more energy balance, which extend the network lifetime compared with the uniform deployment strategy.

Improve Energy Efficiency

Existing approach of routing protocols had only partial support towards energy efficiency. However, none of them had focused on considering network coding aware routing to reduce energy consumption. Majority of the existing solutions in literature to improve the communication performance of MANET has focused on minimum cost routing protocols. There are very less significant studies towards network coding in performing routing in MANET system. Therefore, it is totally unknown how network coding could be used to solve such issues. Throughput in wireless networks can be enhanced with the help of network coding. This approach also increases network lifetime in the cases of devices running on battery, such as wireless sensor nodes. Additionally, network coding achieves a reduction in the number of transmissions needed for transmission of a specific message through the network by making energy usage more efficient. Despite its benefits, however, network coding can have a negative impact on network lifetime if it is implemented excessively. Initially, to achieve the goal of improving throughput, reducing energy efficiency by reducing the number of broadcasting transmissions, a network coding model is created in this study and the MANET broadcast based on network coding is improved by the heuristic principle of Ant Colony Optimization. This study proposes the application of a network coding based dominating set approach to traditional routing protocols like adhoc on demand distance vector (AODV) as a solution to this issue. Coding gain of different topologies with different offer loads is evaluated using network coding. We discussed the performance of Alice-bob, cross, X, and wheel topologies using network coding. The study has paid particular attention to the trade-off between selection of paths compatible with network coding and network lifetime. The present study addresses this compromise that demonstrates that networks with energy restrictions are incompatible with the current network coding strategies based on throughput. One routing issue is attributed particular importance, namely, reduction of overall energy usage and improvement of individual node lifetime through effective routing of a series of traffic demands over the network. A range of analytical formulations is put forth to generate an optimal solution for the issue of multi-path routing. Results show that, by comparison to solutions without network coding, the suggested solutions improve energy efficiency while at the same time satisfying the specified lifetime restrictions.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is developed extremely because of their low installation cost and various applications. WSN has compact and inexpensive sensor nodes for monitoring the physical environment. WSNs are susceptible to many attacks (e.g. malicious nodes) because of its distinct characteristics. The performance of node and network is affected by the malicious nodes. Moreover, the communication among the sensor nodes also required to be secured for preventing the data from the hackers. In this paper, the architecture of the WSN is generated by using the Fuzzy-C-Means clustering (FCM). Then the detection of the malicious nodes is performed by using the Acknowledgement Scheme (AS). This AS is integrated in the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based routing for avoiding the malicious nodes while generating the route from the source to the Base Station (BS). Then the Hybrid Encryption Algorithm (HEA) is used for performing the secure data transmission through the network and this proposed method is named as HEA-AS. The performance of the HEA-AS method is evaluated in terms of End to End Delay (EED), network lifetime, throughput, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and Packet Loss Ratio (PLR). The proposed HEA-AS method is compared with the existing method called as CTCM to evaluate the effectiveness of the HEA-AS method.

Energy Efficient Routing

There are certain challenges faced with wireless sensor networks (WSNs) performances, consumption can be seen amongst all these challenges as a serious area of research. Data from sensor nodes are transmitted by most WSN energy either among many nodes or to the base station (BS), and due this connection, several routing protocols were developed for supporting in data transmission in the WSNs. Extending network lifetime in an operational environment is the major objective of the wireless sensor network. Charging or exchanging sensor node batteries is almost impossible. Energy balancing and energy efficiency are significant research scopes as per designing of routing protocols aimed at self-organized WSNs. A heterogeneous WSN is one where every node has different amount of energy linked to it before it is deployed in a network. Therefore, different energy efficient routing protocols have been proposed which enables lesser consumption of energy, longer stability period which leads to the network lifetime increasing. In this study, the average energy of a WSN is computed after every logical round of operation for our protocol-HPEEA and compare it with two well-known heterogeneous protocols namely-SEP and CCS. At the end of the considered number of logical operations, MATLAB with simulation results confirm that HPEEA protocol have a reduction in the energy consumption compared to other protocols.
