Energy Aware Routing

Wireless sensor network (WSN) typically has energy consumption restriction. Designing energy-aware routing protocol can significantly reduce energy consumption in WSNs. Energy-aware routing protocols can be classified into two categories, energy savers and energy balancers. Energy saving protocols are used to minimize the overall energy consumed by a WSN, while energy balancing protocols attempt to efficiently distribute the consumption of energy throughout the network. In general terms, energy saving protocols are not necessarily good at balancing energy consumption and energy balancing protocols are not always good at reducing energy consumption. In this paper, we propose an energy-aware routing protocol (ERP) for query-based applications in WSNs, which offers a good trade-off between traditional energy balancing and energy saving objectives and supports a soft real time packet delivery. This is achieved by means of fuzzy sets and learning automata techniques along with zonal broadcasting to decrease total energy consumption.

GEAR is an important geographic and energy aware routing protocol in wireless sensor network. As the GEAR is short of enough topology knowledge and the nodes energy is limited, routing void and routing loop will be arisen. This paper presents a smart energy aware routing protocol based on the geographic (SGEAR), which is suitable for the specific scenarios of small network. In the specific scenarios of small network, there are three major nodes to concentrate on, (1) the selected (2) the void (3) the residual energy is less than threshold. The SGEAR modifies the cost functions based on the residual energy, escaping the routing loop caused by the broadcast delay. From the simulations, the conclusions can be drawn that the smaller hop count doesnt indicate the less energy consumption, and SGEAR can reduce the void number, reducing the energy consumption of the entire network, which further prolongs the life of the network to satisfy the need of the specific scenarios of small network.

Routing Scheme

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) continue to provide essential services for various applications such as surveillance, data gathering, and data transmission from the hazardous environments to safer destinations. This has been enhanced by the energy-efficient routing protocols that are mostly designed for such purposes. Gateway-based Energy-Aware Multi-hop Routing protocol (MGEAR) is one of the homogenous routing schemes that was recently designed to more efficiently reduce the energy consumption of distant nodes. However, it has been found that the protocol has a high energy consumption rate, lower stability period, less data transmission to the Base station (BS). In this paper, an enhanced Heterogeneous Gateway-based Energy-Aware multi-hop routing protocol ( HMGEAR) is proposed. The proposed routing scheme is based on the introduction of heterogeneous nodes in the existing scheme, selection of the head based on the residual energy, introduction of multi-hop communication strategy in all the regions of the network, and implementation of energy hole elimination technique. Results show that the proposed routing scheme outperforms two existing ones.

The dense deployment of the wireless sensor networks has caused enormous data flow leading to a Big-Data generation. To enable a continuous transmission for the huge volume of data packets, it becomes necessary to readapt the routing protocol to facilitate the routing in handling the Big-data scenario. Since energy is the main constraint in the wireless sensor network, as the sensor are battery powered, and the routing methods consuming enormous of the energy for route discovery thereby reducing the network life time, many conventional methods were developed to address the problem of energy consumption with the, increased network latency, overhead, security issues and delay. So the paper proposes the energy-aware routing protocol that could handle the security issues, arising in the enormous data generation satisfying the QOS requirements. The node with substantial resources are selected to overcome the problems of energy consumption and the network life time handling the security issues , delay, network latency and the overhead problem. Further validation of the proposed method in the Network Simulator-3 is performed to evaluate the network latency, packet delivery ratio, throughput, power consumption, network lifetime and Cost.
