In order to maximize network lifetime and balance energy consumption when sink nodes can move, maximizing lifetime of wireless sensor networks with mobile sink nodes (MLMS) is researched. The movement path selection method of sink nodes is proposed. Modified subtractive clustering method, k-means method, and nearest neighbor interpolation method are used to obtain the movement paths. The lifetime optimization model is established under flow constraint, energy consumption constraint, link transmission constraint, and other constraints. The model is solved from the perspective of static and mobile data gathering of sink nodes. Subgradient method is used to solve the lifetime optimization model when one sink node stays at one anchor location. Geometric method is used to evaluate the amount of gathering data when sink nodes are moving. Finally, all sensor nodes transmit data according to the optimal data transmission scheme. Sink nodes gather the data along the shortest movement paths. Simulation results show that MLMS can prolong network lifetime, balance node energy consumption, and reduce data gathering latency under appropriate parameters. Under certain conditions, it outperforms Ratio_w, TPGF, RCC, and GRND.

To improve the lifetime of mobile sink-based wireless sensor networks and considering that data transmission delay and hops are limited in actual system, a lifetime optimization algorithm limited by data transmission delay and hops (LOA_DH) for mobile sink-based wireless sensor networks is proposed. In LOA_DH, some constraints are analyzed, and an optimization model is proposed. Maximum capacity path routing algorithm is used to calculate the energy consumption of communication. Improved genetic algorithm which modifies individuals to meet all constraints is used to solve the optimization model. The optimal solution of sink node’s sojourn grid centers and sojourn times which maximizes network lifetime is obtained. Simulation results show that, in three node distribution scenes, LOA_DH can find the movement solution of sink node which covers all sensor nodes. Compared with MCP_RAND, MCP_GMRE, and EASR, the solution improves network lifetime and reduces average amount of node discarded data and average energy consumption of nodes.

To prolong network lifetime, lifetime maximization routing based on genetic algorithm (GALMR) for wireless sensor networks is proposed. Energy consumption model and node transmission probability are used to calculate the total energy consumption of nodes in a data gathering cycle. Then, lifetime maximization routing is formulated as maximization optimization problem. The select, crosss, and mutation operations in genetic algorithm are used to find the optimal network lifetime and node transmission probability. Simulation results show that GALMR algorithm are convergence and can prolong network lifetime. Under certain conditions, GALMR outperforms PEDAP-PA, LET, Sum-w and Ratio-w algorithms.

Data gathering is an essential concern in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). This paper proposes an efficient data gathering method in clustered WSNs based on sparse sampling to reduce energy consumption and prolong the network lifetime. For data gathering scheme, we propose a method that can collect sparse sampled data in each time slot with a fixed percent of nodes remaining in sleep mode. For data reconstruction, a subspace approach is proposed to enforce an explicit low-rank constraint for data reconstruction from sparse sampled data. Subspace representing spatial distributions of the WSNs data can be estimated from previous reconstructed data. Incorporating total variation constraint, the proposed reconstruction method reconstructs current time slot data efficiently. The results of experiments indicate that the proposed method can reduce the energy consumption and prolong the network lifetime with satisfying recovery accuracy.

In recent years, energy efficiency and data gathering is a major concern in many applications of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). One of the important issues in WSNs is how to save the energy consumption for prolonging the network lifetime. For this purpose, many novel innovative techniques are required to improve the energy efficiency and lifetime of the network. In this paper, we propose a novel Energy Efficient Clustering and Data Aggregation (EECDA) protocol for the heterogeneous WSNs which combines the ideas of energy efficient cluster based routing and data aggregation to achieve a better performance in terms of lifetime and stability. EECDA protocol includes a novel cluster head election technique and a path would be selected with maximum sum of energy residues for data transmission instead of the path with minimum energy consumption. Simulation results show that EECDA balances the energy consumption and prolongs the network lifetime by a factor of 51%, 35% and 10% when compared with Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH), Energy Efficient Hierarchical Clustering Algorithm (EEHCA) and Effective Data Gathering Algorithm (EDGA), respectively.

AbstractIn this study, we present two novel protocols for optimizing energy consumption in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks for supervising the environment and multi-target detecting and tracking in real large-scale areas. The use of mobile sink in wireless sensor networks, despite its numerous advantages, is impossible in the majority of environments. Hence, by utilization of a novel scheme for duty cycle integrated with fuzzy logic, despite using a fixed base station, the propose protocol can enhance network lifetime even more than those protocols which use mobile sink for data collection. In this protocol, by introducing an unequal clustering method based on fuzzy logic, the possibility of energy holes problem is very far from expectation. Simulation of the proposed protocol through Matlab indicated that the proposed method outperformed other available methods with regard to preventing energy hole. Consequently, network lifetime is enhanced even in large-sized networks.

Background & Objective: Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consist of huge number of tiny senor nodes. WSN collects environmental data and sends to the base station through multi-hop wireless communication. QoS is the salient aspect in wireless sensor networks that satisfies end-to-end QoS requirement on different parameters such as energy, network lifetime, packets delivery ratio and delay. Among them Energy consumption is the most important and challenging factor in WSN, since the senor nodes are made by battery reserved that tends towards life time of sensor networks. Methods: In this work an Improve-Energy Aware Multi-hop Multi-path Hierarchy (I-EAMMH) QoS based routing approach has been proposed and evaluated that reduces energy consumption and delivers data packets within time by selecting optimum cost path among discovered routes which extends network life time. Results and Conclusion: Simulation has been done in MATLAB on varying number of rounds 400- 2000 to checked the performance of proposed approach. I-EAMMH is compared with existing routing protocols namely EAMMH and LEACH and performs better in terms of end-to-end-delay, packet delivery ratio, as well as reduces the energy consumption 13%-19% and prolongs network lifetime 9%- 14%.
