Energy is a precious resource in underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs). In these networks, the number of data transmissions between sensor nodes dominates energy consumption. Complex signal processing techniques also increase energy consumption. In this paper an energy-efficient data transmission scheme based on bloom filters is proposed. Extensive simulation is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme outperforms the primary technique in terms of energy efficiency, lifetime, load and loss rate. The results of this research suggest that exploiting bloom filters is a viable solution for reducing the number of transmissions in UWSNs.

Abstract Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been recognized as one of the most essential technologies of the 21st century. The applications of WSNs are rapidly increasing in almost every sector because they can be deployed in areas where cable and power supply are difficult to use. In the literature, different methods have been proposed to minimize energy consumption of sensor nodes so as to prolong WSNs utilization. In this article, we propose an efficient routing protocol for data transmission in WSNs; it is called Energy-Efficient Hierarchical routing protocol for wireless sensor networks based on Fog Computing (EEHFC). Fog computing is integrated into the proposed scheme due to its capability to optimize the limited power source of WSNs and its ability to scale up to the requirements of the Internet of Things applications. In addition, we propose an improved ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm that can be used to construct optimal path for efficient data transmission for sensor nodes. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated in comparison with P-SEP, EDCF, and RABACO schemes. The results of the simulations show that the proposed approach can minimize sensor nodes’ energy consumption, data packet losses and extends the network lifetime

A novel energy-efficient data gathering scheme that exploits spatial-temporal correlation is proposed for clustered wireless sensor networks in this paper. In the proposed method, dual prediction is used in the intracluster transmission to reduce the temporal redundancy, and hybrid compressed sensing is employed in the intercluster transmission to reduce the spatial redundancy. Moreover, an error threshold selection scheme is presented for the prediction model by optimizing the relationship between the energy consumption and the recovery accuracy, which makes the proposed method well suitable for different application environments. In addition, the transmission energy consumption is derived to verify the efficiency of the proposed method. Simulation results show that the proposed method has higher energy efficiency compared with the existing schemes, and the sink can recover measurements with reasonable accuracy by using the proposed method.

In wireless sensor networks, due to limited energy, how to disseminate the event data in an energy-efficient way to allow sinks quickly querying and receiving the needed event data is a practical and important issue. Many studies about data dissemination have been proposed. However, most of them are not energy-efficient, especially in large-scale networks. Hence, in this paper the authors proposed an energy-efficient data dissemination scheme in large-scale wireless sensor networks. First, the authors design a data storage method which disseminates only a few amount event data by dividing the network into regions and levels, and thus reducing the energy consumption. Then, the authors develop an efficient sink query forwarding strategy by probability analysis so that a sink can query events easily according to its location to reduce the delay time of querying event data, as well as energy consumption. In addition, a simple and efficient maintenance mechanism is also provided. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms TTDD and LBDD in terms of the energy consumption and control overhead.
