Energy-Efficient Multi-Level and Distance-Aware Clustering Mechanism for WSNs
[EN] Most sensor networks are deployed at hostile environments to sense and gather specific information. As
sensor nodes have battery constraints, therefore, the research community is trying to propose energyefficient
solutions for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to prolong the lifetime of the network. In this paper,
we propose an energy-efficient multi-level and distance-aware clustering (EEMDC) mechanism for WSNs.
In this mechanism, the area of the network is divided into three logical layers, which depends upon the
hop-count-based distance from the base station. The simulation outcomes show that EEMDC is more energy
efficient than other existing conventional approaches.This work has been partially supported by the 'Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion', through the 'Plan Nacional de I+D+i 2008-2011' in the 'Subprograma de Proyectos de Investigacion Fundamental', project TEC2011-27516, and by the Polytechnic University of Valencia, through the PAID-15-11 multidisciplinary projectsMehmood, A.; Khan, S.; Shams, B.; Lloret, J.

Optimal coverage multi-path scheduling scheme with multiple mobile sinks for WSNs
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are usually formed with many tiny sensors which are randomly deployed within sensing field for target monitoring. These sensors can transmit their monitored data to the sink in a multi-hop communication manner. However, the ‘hot spots’ problem will be caused since nodes near sink will consume more energy during forwarding. Recently, mobile sink based technology provides an alternative solution for the long-distance communication and sensor nodes only need to use single hop communication to the mobile sink during data transmission. Even though it is difficult to consider many network metrics such as sensor position, residual energy and coverage rate etc., it is still very important to schedule a reasonable moving trajectory for the mobile sink. In this paper, a novel trajectory scheduling method based on coverage rate for multiple mobile sinks (TSCR-M) is presented especially for large-scale WSNs. An improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) combined with mutation operator is introduced to search the parking positions with optimal coverage rate. Then the genetic algorithm (GA) is adopted to schedule the moving trajectory for multiple mobile sinks. Extensive simulations are performed to validate the performance of our proposed method
Pheromone-based In-Network Processing for wireless sensor network monitoring systems
Monitoring spatio-temporal continuous fields using wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has emerged as a novel solution. An efficient data-driven routing mechanism for sensor querying and information gathering in large-scale WSNs is a challenging problem. In particular, we consider the case of how to query the sensor network information with the minimum energy cost in scenarios where a small subset of sensor nodes has relevant readings. In order to deal with this problem, we propose a Pheromone-based In-Network Processing (PhINP) mechanism. The proposal takes advantages of both a pheromone-based iterative strategy to direct queries towards nodes with relevant information and query- and response-based in-network filtering to reduce the number of active nodes. Additionally, we apply reinforcement learning to improve the performance. The main contribution of this work is the proposal of a simple and efficient mechanism for information discovery and gathering. It can reduce the messages exchanged in the network, by allowing some error, in order to maximize the network lifetime. We demonstrate by extensive simulations that using PhINP mechanism the query dissemination cost can be reduced by approximately 60% over flooding, with an error below 1%, applying the same in-network filtering strategy.Fil: Riva, Guillermo Gaston.

Efficient Data Gathering in Wireless Sensor Networks Based on Matrix Completion and Compressive Sensing
Gathering data in an energy efficient manner in wireless sensor networks is
an important design challenge. In wireless sensor networks, the readings of
sensors always exhibit intra-temporal and inter-spatial correlations.
Therefore, in this letter, we use low rank matrix completion theory to explore
the inter-spatial correlation and use compressive sensing theory to take
advantage of intra-temporal correlation. Our method, dubbed MCCS, can
significantly reduce the amount of data that each sensor must send through
network and to the sink, thus prolong the lifetime of the whole networks.
Experiments using real datasets demonstrate the feasibility and efficacy of our
MCCS method
Efficient Compressive Sampling of Spatially Sparse Fields in Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSN), i.e. networks of autonomous, wireless sensing
nodes spatially deployed over a geographical area, are often faced with
acquisition of spatially sparse fields. In this paper, we present a novel
bandwidth/energy efficient CS scheme for acquisition of spatially sparse fields
in a WSN. The paper contribution is twofold. Firstly, we introduce a sparse,
structured CS matrix and we analytically show that it allows accurate
reconstruction of bidimensional spatially sparse signals, such as those
occurring in several surveillance application. Secondly, we analytically
evaluate the energy and bandwidth consumption of our CS scheme when it is
applied to data acquisition in a WSN. Numerical results demonstrate that our CS
scheme achieves significant energy and bandwidth savings wrt state-of-the-art
approaches when employed for sensing a spatially sparse field by means of a
WSN.Comment: Submitted to EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processin
