Energy hole is an inherent problem caused by heavier traffic loads of sensor nodes nearer the sink because of more frequent data transmission, which is strongly dependent on the topology induced by the sensor deployment. In this paper, we propose an autonomous sensor redeployment algorithm to balance energy consumption and mitigate energy hole for unattended mobile sensor networks. First, with the target area divided into several equal width coronas, we present a mathematical problem modeling sensor node layout as well as transmission pattern to maximize network coverage and reduce communication cost. And then, by calculating the optimal node density for each corona to avoid energy hole, a fully distributed movement algorithm is proposed, which can achieve an optimal distribution quickly only by pushing or pulling its one-hop neighbors. The simulation results demonstrate that our algorithm achieves a much smaller average moving distance and a much longer network lifetime than existing algorithms and can eliminate the energy hole problem effectively.

IOT-enabled sensors have been deployed in the wide area to perform various applications. Information security is an important aspect in wireless sensor networks. Since the attackers can be able to hack the information even at the node level, improved security mechanism have to be implemented. In this paper, nodal level security is done through dynamic encryption technique. The advantage of dynamic encryption is achieved by adaptive security. The proposed method involves a system-on-chip (SoC) design to provide a dynamically reconfigurable encryption methodology which leads to improved security level and also the energy efficiency. Dynamic encryption creates the confusion among the hackers about the tracking of security keys. The results shows that by dynamically selecting the encryption module through soft-core processor based on the available power budget, an energy efficient security solution is obtained for sensor nodes with reduced resources utilization.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consists of many tiny, autonomous sensor nodes capable of sensing, computation and communication. The main objective of IEEE 802.15.4 based WSN standard is to provide low cost, low power and short range communication. Providing QoS in WSN is a challenging task due to its severe resource constraints in terms of energy, network bandwidth, memory, and CPU. In this chapter, Quality of Service (QoS) performance evaluation has been carried out for IEEE 802.15.4 networks based WSN star and mesh topology using routing protocols like AODV, DSR and DYMO in QualNet 4.5 simulator. Performance evaluations metrics like Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), throughput, average end to end delay, energy per goodput bit, network lifetime of battery model and total energy consumption which includes transmission, reception, idle and sleep mode were considered for both the topology. From the simulation studies and analysis, it can be seen that on an average DSR and DYMO performs better than AODV for different traffic load rates.

Large-scale sensor networks are systems that a large number of high-throughput autonomous sensor nodes are distributed over wide areas. Much attention has paid to provide efficient data management in such systems. Sensor grid provides low cost and high performance computing to physical world data perceived through sensors. This article analyses the real-time sensor grid challenges on large-scale air pollution data management. A sensor grid architecture for pollution data management is proposed. The processing of the service-oriented grid management is described in psuedocode. A simulation experiment investigates the performance of the data management for such a system.
