    Wireless sensor network one of the most favourite topic for researcher to explore. Wireless sensor networks is very useful so more number of sensor nodes are deploying and large number of data being sensed and collected. To meet the expectations of demands networks should be in safe and good state. Problems in wireless sensor networks are congestion and wastage of energy. So it's necessary to control the congestion and minimize the energy consumption. Congestion causes heavy data loss and unnecessary retransmission of data. Congestion causes by many reasons. There are some techniques and algorithms which can control the congestion at some degree. Here we have suggested technique which can do a Congestion Control with High bandwidth in networks. Amount of congestion in network can be decided by maximum and minimum threshold values that can assign in initial phase of algorithm

    To achieve greater performance in computing networks, a setup of critical computing aspects that ensures efficient network operation, needs to be implemented. One of these computing aspects is, Quality of Service (QoS). Its main functionality is to manage traffic queues by means of prioritizing sensitive network traffic. QoS capable networking allows efficient control of traffic especially for network critical data. However, to achieve this in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is a serious challenge, since these technologies have a lot of computing limitations. It is even difficult to manage networking resources with ease in these types of technologies, due to their communication, processing and memory limitations. Even though this is the case with WSNs, they have been largely used in monitoring/detection systems, and by this proving their application importance. Realizing efficient network control requires intelligent methods of network management, especially for sensitive network data. Different network types implement diverse methods to control and administer network traffic as well as effectively manage network resources. As with WSNs, communication traffic and network resource control are mostly performed depending on independently employed mechanisms to deal with networking events occurring on different levels. It is therefore challenging to realize efficient network performance with guaranteed QoS in WSNs, given their computing limitations. Software defined networking (SDN) is advocated as a potential paradigm to improve and evolve WSNs in terms of capacity and application. A means to apply SDN strategies to these compute-limited WSNs, formulates software defined wireless sensor networks (SDWSN). In this work, a resource-aware OpenFlow-based Active Network Management (OF-ANM) QoS scheme that uses SDN strategies is proposed and implemented to apply QoS requirements for managing traffic congestion in WSNs. This scheme uses SDN programmability strategies to apply network QoS requirements and perform traffic load balancing to ensure congestion control in SDWSN. Our experimental results show that the developed scheme is able to provide congestion avoidance within the network. It also allows opportunities to implement flexible QoS requirements based on the system’s traffic state. Moreover, a QoS Path Selection and Resource-associating (Q-PSR) scheme for adaptive load balancing and intelligent resource control for optimal network performance is proposed and implemented. Our experimental results indicate better performance in terms of computation with load balancing and efficient resource alignment for different networking tasks when compared with other competing schemes.Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2018.National Research FoundationUniversity of PretoriaElectrical, Electronic and Computer EngineeringPhDUnrestricte

    A fuzzy technique to control congestion in WSN

    Full text link
    Congestion in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a crucial issue. That is due to the relatively high node density and source-to-sink communication pattern. Congestion not only causes packet loss, but also leads to excessive energy consumption as well as delay. Therefore, in order to prolong network lifetime and improve fairness and provide better quality of service, developing a novel solution for congestion estimation and control is important to be considered. To address this problem, we propose a type-2 fuzzy logic based algorithm to detect and control congestion level in WSNs. The proposed algorithm considers local information such as packet loss rate and delay to control congestion in the network. Simulation results show that our protocol performs better than a recently developed protocol in prolonging network lifetime as well as decreasing packet loss
