Modeling and Simulation of a Novel Relay Node Based Secure Routing Protocol Using Multiple Mobile Sink for Wireless Sensor Networks

Data gathering and optimal path selection for wireless sensor networks (WSN) using existing protocols result in collision. Increase in collision further increases the possibility of packet drop. Thus there is a necessity to eliminate collision during data aggregation. Increasing the efficiency is the need of the hour with maximum security. This paper is an effort to come up with a reliable and energy efficient WSN routing and secure protocol with minimum delay. This technique is named as relay node based secure routing protocol for multiple mobile sink (RSRPMS). This protocol finds the rendezvous point for optimal transmission of data using a “splitting tree” technique in tree-shaped network topology and then to determine all the subsequent positions of a sink the “Biased Random Walk” model is used. In case of an event, the sink gathers the data from all sources, when they are in the sensing range of rendezvous point. Otherwise relay node is selected from its neighbor to transfer packets from rendezvous point to sink. A symmetric key cryptography is used for secure transmission. The proposed relay node based secure routing protocol for multiple mobile sink (RSRPMS) is experimented and simulation results are compared with Intelligent Agent-Based Routing (IAR) protocol to prove that there is increase in the network lifetime compared with other routing protocols

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

Energy sink-holes avoidance method based on fuzzy system in wireless sensor networks

The existence of a mobile sink for gathering data significantly extends wireless sensor networks (WSNs) lifetime. In recent years, a variety of efficient rendezvous points-based sink mobility approaches has been proposed for avoiding the energy sink-holes problem nearby the sink, diminishing buffer overflow of sensors, and reducing the data latency. Nevertheless, lots of research has been carried out to sort out the energy holes problem using controllable-based sink mobility methods. However, further developments can be demonstrated and achieved on such type of mobility management system. In this paper, a well-rounded strategy involving an energy-efficient routing protocol along with a controllable-based sink mobility method is proposed to extirpate the energy sink-holes problem. This paper fused the fuzzy A-star as a routing protocol for mitigating the energy consumption during data forwarding along with a novel sink mobility method which adopted a grid partitioning system and fuzzy system that takes account of the average residual energy, sensors density, average traffic load, and sources angles to detect the optimal next location of the mobile sink. By utilizing diverse performance metrics, the empirical analysis of our proposed work showed an outstanding result as compared with fuzzy A-star protocol in the case of a static sink

Energy Efficient Mobile Sink Based Routing Model For Maximizing Lifetime of Wireless Sensor Network

Recently, wide adoption of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has been seen for provision real-time and non-real-time application services. Provisioning these application service requires energy efficient routing design for WSN. Clustering technique is an efficient mechanism that plays a major role in minimizing energy dissipation of WSN. However, the existing model are designed considering minimizing energy consumption of sensor device considering homogenous. However, it incurs energy overhead among cluster head. Further, maximizing coverage time is not considered by exiting clustering approach considering heterogeneous network affecting lifetime performance. For overcoming issues of routing data packets in WSN, mobile sink has been used. Here, the sensor device will transmit packet in multihop fashion to the rendezvous and the mobile sink will move towards rendezvous points (RPs) to collect data, as opposed to all nodes. However, the exiting model designed so far incurs packet delay (latency) and energy (storage) overhead among sensor device. For overcoming research challenges, this work present energy efficient mobile sink based routing model for maximizing lifetime of wireless sensor network. Experiment are conducted to evaluate the performance of proposed model shows significant performance in terms of communication, routing overhead and lifetime of sensor network

Mobile Sink Node with Discerning Motility Approach for Energy Efficient Delay Sensitive Data Communication over Wireless Sensor Body Area Networks

The sensors nearby the static sink drains their energy resources rapidly, since they continuously involve to build routes in Wireless sensor networks, which are between data sources and static sink. Hence, the sensors nearby the sink having limited lifespan, which axing the network lifetime.The mobile-sink strategy that allows the sink to move around the network area to distribute the transmission overhead to multiple sensor nodes. However, the mobile-sink strategy is often tall ordered practice due to the continuous need of establishing routes between source nodes and the mobile sink (MS) at new position occurred due to its random mobility. In regard to above stated argument, this manuscript proposed a novel energy data transmission strategy which is effective for WSN with mobile sink. Unlike the traditional contributions, which relies on mobile sink with random mobility strategies, the proposal defines a discerning path for mobile sink routing between sectioned clusters of the WSN. The proposal of the manuscript titled “Mobile Sink Node with Discerning Motility Approach (MSDMA) for Energy Efficient Data Communication over WBAN”. The method defined in proposed model sections the target network in to multiple geographical clusters and prioritize these clusters by the delay sensitivity of the data transmitted by the sensor nodes of the corresponding clusters. Further, discriminating these clusters by their delay sensitive priority to define mobile sink route. For estimation of the delay sensitive priority of the clusters, set of metrics are proposed. The experimental study carried on simulation to assess the significance of the suggested method. The performance improvement of the suggested method is ascended through comparative analysis performed against benchmark model under divergent metrics

An improved ant colony optimization-based approach with mobile sink for wireless sensor networks

Traditional wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with one static sink node suffer from the well-known hot spot problem, that of sensor nodes near the static sink bear more traffic load than outlying nodes. Thus, the overall network lifetime is reduced due to the fact some nodes deplete their energy reserves much faster compared to the rest. Recently, adopting sink mobility has been considered as a good strategy to overcome the hot spot problem. Mobile sink(s) physically move within the network and communicate with selected nodes, such as cluster heads (CHs), to perform direct data collection through short-range communications that requires no routing. Finding an optimal mobility trajectory for the mobile sink is critical in order to achieve energy efficiency. Taking hints from nature, the ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm has been seen as a good solution to finding an optimal traversal path. Whereas the traditional ACO algorithm will guide ants to take a small step to the next node using current information, over time they will deviate from the target. Likewise, a mobile sink may communicate with selected node for a relatively long time making the traditional ACO algorithm delays not suitable for high real-time WSNs applications. In this paper, we propose an improved ACO algorithm approach for WSNs that use mobile sinks by considering CH distances. In this research, the network is divided into several clusters and each cluster has one CH. While the distance between CHs is considered under the traditional ACO algorithm, the mobile sink node finds an optimal mobility trajectory to communicate with CHs under our improved ACO algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly improve wireless sensor network performance compared to other routing algorithms
