Coverage Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks: Review and Future Directions
The coverage problem in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be generally
defined as a measure of how effectively a network field is monitored by its
sensor nodes. This problem has attracted a lot of interest over the years and
as a result, many coverage protocols were proposed. In this survey, we first
propose a taxonomy for classifying coverage protocols in WSNs. Then, we
classify the coverage protocols into three categories (i.e. coverage aware
deployment protocols, sleep scheduling protocols for flat networks, and
cluster-based sleep scheduling protocols) based on the network stage where the
coverage is optimized. For each category, relevant protocols are thoroughly
reviewed and classified based on the adopted coverage techniques. Finally, we
discuss open issues (and recommend future directions to resolve them)
associated with the design of realistic coverage protocols. Issues such as
realistic sensing models, realistic energy consumption models, realistic
connectivity models and sensor localization are covered
A survey of network lifetime maximization techniques in wireless sensor networks
Emerging technologies, such as the Internet of things, smart applications, smart grids and machine-to-machine networks stimulate the deployment of autonomous, selfconfiguring, large-scale wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Efficient energy utilization is crucially important in order to maintain a fully operational network for the longest period of time possible. Therefore, network lifetime (NL) maximization techniques have attracted a lot of research attention owing to their importance in terms of extending the flawless operation of battery-constrained WSNs. In this paper, we review the recent developments in WSNs, including their applications, design constraints and lifetime estimation models. Commencing with the portrayal of rich variety definitions of NL design objective used for WSNs, the family of NL maximization techniques is introduced and some design guidelines with examples are provided to show the potential improvements of the different design criteri
On Modeling Geometric Joint Sink Mobility with Delay-Tolerant Cluster-less Wireless Sensor Networks
Moving Sink (MS) in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has appeared as a
blessing because it collects data directly from the nodes where the concept of
relay nodes is becomes obsolete. There are, however, a few challenges to be
taken care of, like data delay tolerance and trajectory of MS which is NP-hard.
In our proposed scheme, we divide the square field in small squares. Middle
point of the partitioned area is the sojourn location of the sink, and nodes
around MS are in its transmission range, which send directly the sensed data in
a delay-tolerant fashion. Two sinks are moving simultaneously; one inside and
having four sojourn locations and other in outer trajectory having twelve
sojourn locations. Introduction of the joint mobility enhances network life and
ultimately throughput. As the MS comes under the NP-hard problem, we convert it
into a geometric problem and define it as, Geometric Sink Movement (GSM). A set
of linear programming equations has also been given in support of GSM which
prolongs network life time
Distributed Optimal Rate-Reliability-Lifetime Tradeoff in Wireless Sensor Networks
The transmission rate, delivery reliability and network lifetime are three
fundamental but conflicting design objectives in energy-constrained wireless
sensor networks. In this paper, we address the optimal
rate-reliability-lifetime tradeoff with link capacity constraint, reliability
constraint and energy constraint. By introducing the weight parameters, we
combine the objectives at rate, reliability, and lifetime into a single
objective to characterize the tradeoff among them. However, the optimization
formulation of the rate-reliability-reliability tradeoff is neither separable
nor convex. Through a series of transformations, a separable and convex problem
is derived, and an efficient distributed Subgradient Dual Decomposition
algorithm (SDD) is proposed. Numerical examples confirm its convergence. Also,
numerical examples investigate the impact of weight parameters on the rate
utility, reliability utility and network lifetime, which provide a guidance to
properly set the value of weight parameters for a desired performance of WSNs
according to the realistic application's requirements.Comment: 27 pages, 10 figure
A reliable cross layer routing scheme (CL-RS) for wireless sensor networks to prolong network lifetime
Design of conventional protocols for wireless sensor networks(WSN) are mainly based on energy management. The solutions for layered protocol of the WSN network are inefficient as sensors network mainly delivers real-time content thus, cross layer communication between layers of the protocol stack is highly required. In this paper, a reliable cross layer routing scheme (CL - RS) is proposed to balance energy to achieve prolonged lifetime through controlled utilization of limited energy. CL - RS considers 2 adjacent layers namely, MAC layer and network layer. Optimization issues are identified in these two layers and solutions are provided to reduce energy consumption thereby increasing network lifetime. To achieve higher energy efficiency MAC layer protocols compromise on packet latency. It is essential to attempt reduce the end-to-end delay and energy consumption using low duty cycle cross layer MAC (CL-MAC). The joint optimization design is formulated as a linear programming problem. The network is partitioned into four request zones to enable increase in network performance by using an appropriate duty cycle and routing scheme. We demonstrate by simulations that the strategy designed by combining (CL - RS) and (CL-MAC) algorithms at each layer significantly increases the network lifetime and a relation exists between the network lifetime maximization and the reliability constraint. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme under different scenarios using ns-2. Experimental results shows that proposed scheme outperforms the layered AODV in terms of packet loss ratio, end-to-end delay, control overhead and energy consumption
A Survey on Scheduling Schemes with Security in Wireless Sensor Networks
AbstractWireless Sensor Network (WSN) is highly distributed network of small and light weight node. The node has the limited battery lifetime. Packet scheduling is important in WSN to maintain fairness based on priority of the data and to reduce the end to end delay. Existing packet scheduling algorithm used were First Come First Served (FCFS), Preemptive, Non-Preemptive.In this paper Dynamic Multilevel Priority (DMP) Packet Scheduling Scheme with the Bit Rate classification is proposed. The threshold value check mechanism is also proposed to prevent the deadlock situation. To provide security we will be implementing the RC6 security algorithm
A Coverage Monitoring algorithm based on Learning Automata for Wireless Sensor Networks
To cover a set of targets with known locations within an area with limited or
prohibited ground access using a wireless sensor network, one approach is to
deploy the sensors remotely, from an aircraft. In this approach, the lack of
precise sensor placement is compensated by redundant de-ployment of sensor
nodes. This redundancy can also be used for extending the lifetime of the
network, if a proper scheduling mechanism is available for scheduling the
active and sleep times of sensor nodes in such a way that each node is in
active mode only if it is required to. In this pa-per, we propose an efficient
scheduling method based on learning automata and we called it LAML, in which
each node is equipped with a learning automaton, which helps the node to select
its proper state (active or sleep), at any given time. To study the performance
of the proposed method, computer simulations are conducted. Results of these
simulations show that the pro-posed scheduling method can better prolong the
lifetime of the network in comparison to similar existing method
Analysis of energy efficient connected target coverage algorithm for static and dynamic nodes in IWSNs
Today breakthroughs in wireless technologies have greatly spurred the emergence of industrial wireless sensor networks (IWSNs).To facilitate the adaptation of IWSNs to industrial applications, concerns about networks full coverage and connectivity must be addressed to fulfill reliability and real time requirements. Although connected target coverage algorithms have been studied notice both limitations and applicability of various coverage areas from an industry viewpoint. In this paper is discuss the two energy efficiency connected target coverage (CTC) algorithms CWGC(Communication Weighted Greedy Cover) and OTTC(Overlapped Target and Connected Coverage) algorithm based on dynamic node to resolve the problem of Coverage improvement. This paper uses the simulation in MATLAB represent the performance of two CTC algorithms with Dynamic node to improve network lifetime and low energy consumption and quality of service. Compare the dynamic nodes results with static nodes result
