A Review on Sensor Node Placement Techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks
One way to provide Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) with maximum coverage, maximum connectivity, minimum deployment cost and minimum energy consumption is through an effective planning mechanism in arranging an optimum number of sensor nodes. Proper planning will provide a cost-effective deployment by having optimal placements for the sensor nodes. Sensor node placement schemes are needed to accommodate the balance of coverage and energy consumption since closer sensor nodes not only reduces the energy consumption but will result in the network coverage becoming smaller. This paper critically reviews the research and development work done in sensor node placement. Based on the review, the design objectives that need to be considered are identified. Most of the work reviewed focused on two or three design objectives
Radio Co-location Aware Channel Assignments for Interference Mitigation in Wireless Mesh Networks
Designing high performance channel assignment schemes to harness the
potential of multi-radio multi-channel deployments in wireless mesh networks
(WMNs) is an active research domain. A pragmatic channel assignment approach
strives to maximize network capacity by restraining the endemic interference
and mitigating its adverse impact on network performance. Interference
prevalent in WMNs is multi-faceted, radio co-location interference (RCI) being
a crucial aspect that is seldom addressed in research endeavors. In this
effort, we propose a set of intelligent channel assignment algorithms, which
focus primarily on alleviating the RCI. These graph theoretic schemes are
structurally inspired by the spatio-statistical characteristics of
interference. We present the theoretical design foundations for each of the
proposed algorithms, and demonstrate their potential to significantly enhance
network capacity in comparison to some well-known existing schemes. We also
demonstrate the adverse impact of radio co- location interference on the
network, and the efficacy of the proposed schemes in successfully mitigating
it. The experimental results to validate the proposed theoretical notions were
obtained by running an exhaustive set of ns-3 simulations in IEEE 802.11g/n
environments.Comment: Accepted @ ICACCI-201
Survey on Various Aspects of Clustering in Wireless Sensor Networks Employing Classical, Optimization, and Machine Learning Techniques
A wide range of academic scholars, engineers, scientific and technology communities are interested in energy utilization of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Their extensive research is going on in areas like scalability, coverage, energy efficiency, data communication, connection, load balancing, security, reliability and network lifespan.

Novel Scheme for Minimal Iterative PSO Algorithm for Extending Network Lifetime of Wireless Sensor Network
Clustering is one of the operations in the wireless sensor network that offers both streamlined data routing services as well as energy efficiency. In this viewpoint, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) has already proved its effectiveness in enhancing clustering operation, energy efficiency, etc. However, PSO also suffers from a higher degree of iteration and computational complexity when it comes to solving complex problems, e.g., allocating transmittance energy to the cluster head in a dynamic network. Therefore, we present a novel, simple, and yet a cost-effective method that performs enhancement of the conventional PSO approach for minimizing the iterative steps and maximizing the probability of selecting a better clustered. A significant research contribution of the proposed system is its assurance towards minimizing the transmittance energy as well as receiving energy of a cluster head. The study outcome proved proposed a system to be better than conventional system in the form of energy efficiency

Data Collection Protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks
In recent years, wireless sensor networks have became the effective solutions for a wide range of IoT applications. The major task of this network is data collection, which is the process of sensing the environment, collecting relevant data, and sending them to the server or BS.
