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
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. Individual researchers are searching for affordable methods to enhance the solutions to existing problems that show unique techniques, protocols, concepts, and algorithms in the wanted domain. Review studies typically offer complete, simple access or a solution to these problems. Taking into account this motivating factor and the effect of clustering on the decline of energy, this article focuses on clustering techniques using various wireless sensor networks aspects. The important contribution of this paper is to give a succinct overview of clustering
Metaheuristics Techniques for Cluster Head Selection in WSN: A Survey
In recent years, Wireless sensor communication is growing expeditiously on the capability to gather information, communicate and transmit data effectively. Clustering is the main objective of improving the network lifespan in Wireless sensor network. It includes selecting the cluster head for each cluster in addition to grouping the nodes into clusters. The cluster head gathers data from the normal nodes in the cluster, and the gathered information is then transmitted to the base station. However, there are many reasons in effect opposing unsteady cluster head selection and dead nodes. The technique for selecting a cluster head takes into factors to consider including residual energy, neighbors’ nodes, and the distance between the base station to the regular nodes. In this study, we thoroughly investigated by number of methods of selecting a cluster head and constructing a cluster. Additionally, a quick performance assessment of the techniques' performance is given together with the methods' criteria, advantages, and future directions
A Differential Evolution-Based Routing Algorithm for Environmental Monitoring Wireless Sensor Networks
The traditional Low Energy Adaptive Cluster Hierarchy (LEACH) routing protocol is a clustering-based protocol. The uneven selection of cluster heads results in premature death of cluster heads and premature blind nodes inside the clusters, thus reducing the overall lifetime of the network. With a full consideration of information on energy and distance distribution of neighboring nodes inside the clusters, this paper proposes a new routing algorithm based on differential evolution (DE) to improve the LEACH routing protocol. To meet the requirements of monitoring applications in outdoor environments such as the meteorological, hydrological and wetland ecological environments, the proposed algorithm uses the simple and fast search features of DE to optimize the multi-objective selection of cluster heads and prevent blind nodes for improved energy efficiency and system stability. Simulation results show that the proposed new LEACH routing algorithm has better performance, effectively extends the working lifetime of the system, and improves the quality of the wireless sensor networks
Energy efficient data transmission using multiobjective improved remora optimization algorithm for wireless sensor network with mobile sink
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a collection of nodes fitted with small sensors and transceiver elements. Energy consumption, data loss, and transmission delays are the major drawback of creating mobile sinks. For instance, battery life and data latency might result in node isolation, which breaks the link between nodes in the network. These issues have been avoided by means of mobile data sinks, which move between nodes with connection issues. Therefore, energy aware multiobjective improved remora optimization algorithm and multiobjective ant colony optimization (EA-MIROA-MACO) is proposed in this research to improve the WSN’s energy efficiency by eliminating node isolation issue. MIRO is utilized to pick the optimal cluster heads (CHs), while multiobjective ant colony optimization (MACO) is employed to find the path through the CHs. The EA-MIROA-MACO aims to optimize energy consumption in nodes and enhance data transmission within a WSN. The analysis of EA-MIROA-MACO’s performance is conducted by considering the number of alive along with dead nodes, average residual energy, and network lifespan. The EA-MIROA-MACO is compared with traditional approaches such as mobile sink and fuzzy based relay node routing (MSFBRR) protocol as well as hybrid neural network (HNN). The EA-MIROA-MACO demonstrates a higher number of alive nodes, specifically 192, over the MSFBRR and HNN for 2,000 rounds
Improved LEACH Protocol based on Moth Flame Optimization Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor nodes are made up of small electronic devices designed for detecting, determining, and sending data under severe physical conditions. These sensor nodes rely heavily on batteries for energy, which drain at a quicker pace due to the extensive communication and processing tasks they must carry out. Managing this battery resource is the major challenge in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This work aims at developing an improved performance and energy-efficient low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (IPE-LEACH) that can extend the lifespan of networks. This paper proposes a novel LEACH protocol that uses the moth flame optimization (MFO) algorithm for clustering and routing to increase the longevity of the sensor network. IPE-LEACH proved to have a better cluster-head (CH) selection technique by eliminating redundant data, thereby extending the network lifetime. IPE-LEACH was compared with four other existing algorithms, and it performed better than: original LEACH by 60%, EiP-LEACH by 45%, LEACH-GA by 58%, and LEACH-PSO by 13.8%. It can therefore be concluded that IPE-LEACH is a promising clustering algorithm that has the potential to realize high flexibility in WSNs in case the CH fails.Â
