In this paper, we present the design of a practical underwater sensor network for offshore fish farm cages. An overview of the current structure of an offshore fish farm, applied sensor network solutions, and their weaknesses are given. A mixed wireless–wired approach is proposed to mitigate the problem of wire breakage in underwater wired sensor networks. The approach is based on the serial arrangement of identical sections with wired and wireless interconnections areas. Wireless section alleviates underwater maintenance operations when cages are damaged. The analytical model of the proposed solution is studied in terms of maximum power transfer efficiency and the general formulas of the current in their transmitting antennas and sensor nodes are provided. Subsequently, based on simulations, the effects of parasitic resistance across the network are evaluated. A practical underwater sensor network to reach the 30 m depth with sensor nodes distanced 6 m is used to determine the proposal compliance with the ISO 11784/11785 HDX standard in its normal operation. Taking into account the cable breakage scenario, the results from experiments demonstrate the robustness of the proposed approach to keep running the sensor nodes that are located before the short circuit. Sensor node run time is reduced only 4.07% at most using standard values when a cable breakage occurs at the second deepest section.

AbstractIn wireless rechargeable sensor network, the deployment of charger node directly affects the overall charging utility of sensor network. Aiming at this problem, this paper abstracts the charger deployment problem as a multi-objective optimization problem that maximizes the received power of sensor nodes and minimizes the number of charger nodes. First, a network model that maximizes the sensor node received power and minimizes the number of charger nodes is constructed. Second, an improved cuckoo search (ICS) algorithm is proposed. This algorithm is based on the traditional cuckoo search algorithm (CS) to redefine its step factor, and then use the mutation factor to change the nesting position of the host bird to update the bird’s nest position, and then use ICS to find the ones that maximize the received power of the sensor node and minimize the number of charger nodes optimal solution. Compared with the traditional cuckoo search algorithm and multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, the simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively increase the receiving power of sensor nodes, reduce the number of charger nodes and find the optimal solution to meet the conditions, so as to maximize the network charging utility.

The wireless sensor network is a collection of sensor nodes that operate collectively to gather sensitive data from a target area. In the process of data collection the location of sensor nodes from where data is originated matters for taking any decision at the base station. Location i.e. the coordinates of a sensor node need to be shared among other nodes in many circumstances such as in key distribution phase, during routing of packets and many more. Secrecy of the location of every sensor node is important in any such cases. Therefore, there must be a location sharing scheme that facilitates the sharing of location among sensor nodes securely. In this paper, we have proposed a novel secure and robust mechanism for location sharing scheme using 2-threshold secret sharing scheme. The implementation process of the proposed model is shown here along with results and analysis.

For resource constraint network, one uses wireless sensor network in which limited resources are there for sensor nodes. Basic aim of sensor node is to sense something, monitor it and explain it. The issue arises for sensor node is its battery endurance. The battery endurance of sensor node is consuming in communication instead of sensing. In this regard clustering is using now a day’s which reduces endurance consumption. This paper comes with a new clustering protocol MESAEED (Mutual Exclusive Sleep Awake Energy Efficient Distributed clustering), which helps in saving endurance of sensor nodes so that network lifetime will prolong. It is an extension work of previous work MESADC. In previous work cluster head is chooses on the basis of sleep awake mode in mutual exclusive way under communication range and the results were obtained with the help of comparison graph between HEED and MESADC. The proposed MESAEED protocol provides benefit of A* algorithm of heuristic search, HEED and MESADC. MATLAB 8.3 is use for simulation purpose. The comparison graph between HEED, MESADC and proposed MESAEED were shown. Parameters for comparison include alive nodes versus number of rounds taken and number of nodes dead versus number of rounds taken. The graph shows improvement in performance over HEED and MESADC, which results in enhancing lifetime of WSN.

This paper proposes a level and cluster based routing approach for a wireless sensor network. Nodes in the network are divided into several levels according to their hops to sink node. Every sensor node has a level number. Using level information, a sensor node can send messages to a sink node in a more efficient way, and a sink node can easily locate other sensor nodes. To make network more balanced, the paper introduces a cluster method, which splits nodes in the same level into different clusters, and chooses a cluster head for every cluster, to switch nodes in the cluster to work in turn. Unlike all other cluster routing methods, a cluster head node takes schedule jobs of sensor nodes in the cluster according to their energy left, instead of sensing. The paper also presents several algorithms for constructing a wireless sensor network, querying and scheduling. The simulation experiment shows that the scalability of our method is approximately linear.

The power consumption and energy efficiency of wireless sensor network are the significant problems in Internet of Things network. In this paper, we consider the network topology optimization based on complex network theory to solve the energy efficiency problem of WSN. We propose the energy efficient model of WSN according to the basic principle of small world from complex networks. Small world network has clustering features that are similar to that of the rules of the network but also has similarity to random networks of small average path length. It can be utilized to optimize the energy efficiency of the whole network. Optimal number of multiple sink nodes of the WSN topology is proposed for optimizing energy efficiency. Then, the hierarchical clustering analysis is applied to implement this clustering of the sensor nodes and pick up the sink nodes from the sensor nodes as the clustering head. Meanwhile, the update method is proposed to determine the sink node when the death of certain sink node happened which can cause the paralysis of network. Simulation results verify the energy efficiency of the proposed model and validate the updating of the sink nodes to ensure the normal operation of the WSN.

We all know how Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is making its way in the modern world and how its application is growing effectively. It has been useful technology which helps to transmit and receive the data. In WSN, all information of physical parameter is sensed and processed by the sensor nodes. Along with the growth of technology in WSN, growth of sensor node is also in progress, it means that size of sensor node is getting reduced. Due to this dimension of the battery of the sensor node is also decreases. Hence Power storage of the battery is also reduced which is a demerit in WSN. But in sensor network replacement of battery is not possible. So we can increase the energy efficiency of sensor node by using LEACH protocol. This protocol helps us to increase life span of network. For heterogeneous network, LEACH produces greater unstable region. To the network stable the paper proposes another protocol is Stable Election protocol (SEP). In this paper LEACH and SEP protocol are tested with MATLAB simulation and comparison of both has done.
