Recovery Management

Wireless sensor networks are not prone to harsh environments and may fail due to various reasons. Failure of sensor nodes causes partitioning of network into various small segments and restricts the communication of nodes. Due to the significant importance of restoration mechanisms, many approaches have been proposed in the literature so far. However, these approaches do not focus on uniform distribution of sensor nodes before the occurrence of failure. This paper fulfills the shortcoming in the literature by proposing a Uniform Distribution and Recovery Algorithm (UDRA) in two parts. The first part (prefailure algorithm) focuses on preparing the mobile sensor nodes to be ready for the failure beforehand by maintaining half of their communication distance between them. Also, it uses a novel method of directional matrix based on one-hop information. By using this method, each mobile node declares itself as cut-vertex (CV), intermediate node, or leaf node. The second part of the algorithm (postfailure algorithm) gives complete recovery procedure in the network by its recovery nodes. The extensive simulations prove that the proposed algorithm supersedes the existing approaches.

Underwater sensor networks are envisioned to enable a broad category of underwater applications such as pollution tracking, offshore exploration, and oil spilling. Such applications require precise location information as otherwise the sensed data might be meaningless. On the other hand, security critical issue as underwater sensor networks are typically deployed in harsh environments. Localization is one of the latest research subjects in UWSNs since many useful applying UWSNs, e.g., event detecting. Now day’s large number of localization methods arrived for UWSNs. However, few of them take place stability or security criteria. In purposed work taking up localization in underwater such that various wireless sensor nodes get localize to each other. RSS based localization technique used remove malicious nodes from the communication intermediate node list based on RSS threshold value. Purposed algorithm improves more throughput and less end to end delay without degrading energy dissipation at each node. The simulation is conducted in MATLAB and it suggests optimal result as comparison of end to end delay with and without malicious node.

Energy hole is an inherent problem caused by heavier traffic loads of sensor nodes nearer the sink because of more frequent data transmission, which is strongly dependent on the topology induced by the sensor deployment. In this paper, we propose an autonomous sensor redeployment algorithm to balance energy consumption and mitigate energy hole for unattended mobile sensor networks. First, with the target area divided into several equal width coronas, we present a mathematical problem modeling sensor node layout as well as transmission pattern to maximize network coverage and reduce communication cost. And then, by calculating the optimal node density for each corona to avoid energy hole, a fully distributed movement algorithm is proposed, which can achieve an optimal distribution quickly only by pushing or pulling its one-hop neighbors. The simulation results demonstrate that our algorithm achieves a much smaller average moving distance and a much longer network lifetime than existing algorithms and can eliminate the energy hole problem effectively.

Data Gathering Tree

The authors propose a graph intersection-based benchmarking algorithm to determine the sequence of longest-living stable data gathering trees for wireless mobile sensor networks whose topology changes dynamically with time due to the random movement of the sensor nodes. Referred to as the Maximum Stability-based Data Gathering (Max.Stable-DG) algorithm, the algorithm assumes the availability of complete knowledge of future topology changes and is based on the following greedy principle coupled with the idea of graph intersections: Whenever a new data gathering tree is required at time instant t corresponding to a round of data aggregation, choose the longest-living data gathering tree from time t. The above strategy is repeated for subsequent rounds over the lifetime of the sensor network to obtain the sequence of longest-living stable data gathering trees spanning all the live sensor nodes in the network such that the number of tree discoveries is the global minimum. In addition to theoretically proving the correctness of the Max.Stable-DG algorithm (that it yields the lower bound for the number of discoveries for any network-wide communication topology like spanning trees), the authors also conduct exhaustive simulations to evaluate the performance of the Max.Stable-DG trees and compare to that of the minimum-distance spanning tree-based data gathering trees with respect to metrics such as tree lifetime, delay per round, node lifetime and network lifetime, under both sufficient-energy and energy-constrained scenarios.

Wireless Mobile

With the development of modern communication, available spectrum resources are becoming increasingly scarce, which reduce network throughput. Moreover, the mobility of nodes results in the changes of network topological structure. Hence, a considerable amount of control information is consumed, which causes a corresponding increase in network power consumption and exerts a substantial impact on network lifetime. To solve the real-time transmission problem in large-scale wireless mobile sensor networks, opportunistic spectrum access is applied to adjust the transmission power of sensor nodes and the transmission velocity of data. A cognitive routing and optimization protocol based on multiple channels with a cross-layer design is proposed to study joint optimal cognitive routing with maximizing network throughput and network lifetime. Experimental results show that the cognitive routing and optimization protocol based on multiple channels achieves low computational complexity, which maximizes network throughput and network lifetime. This protocol can be also effectively applied to large-scale wireless mobile sensor networks.

In wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is important because sensor nodes have limited energy. 3-dimensional group management medium access control (3-D GM-MAC) is an attractive MAC protocol for application to the Internet of Things (IoT) environment with various sensors. 3-D GM-MAC outperforms the existing MAC schemes in terms of energy efficiency, but has some stability issues. In this paper, methods that improve the stability and transmission performance of 3-D GM-MAC are proposed. A buffer management scheme for sensor nodes is newly proposed. Fixed sensor nodes that have a higher priority than the mobile sensor nodes in determining the group numbers that were added, and an advanced group number management scheme was introduced. The proposed methods were simulated and analyzed. The newly derived buffer threshold had a similar energy efficiency to the original 3-D GM-MAC, but improved performance in the aspects of data loss rate and data collection rate. Data delay was not included in the comparison factors as 3-D GM-MAC targets non-real-time applications. When using fixed sensor nodes, the number of group number resets is reduced by about 43.4% and energy efficiency increased by about 10%. Advanced group number management improved energy efficiency by about 23.4%. In addition, the advanced group number management with periodical group number resets of the entire sensor nodes showed about a 48.9% improvement in energy efficiency.

Considerable Work

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) consist of sensor nodes that detect relevant events in their vicinity and relay this information for further analysis. Considerable work has been done in the area of sensor node placement to ensure adequate coverage of the area of interest. However, in many applications it may not be possible to accurately place individual sensor nodes. In such cases, imprecise placement can result in regions, referred to as coverage holes, that are not monitored by any sensor node. The use of mobile nodes that can ‘visit' such uncovered regions after deployment has been proposed in the literature as an effective way to maintain adequate coverage. In this paper, the authors propose a novel integer linear programming (ILP) formulation that determines the paths the mobile node(s) should take to realize the specified level of coverage in the shortest time. The authors also present a heuristic algorithm that can be used for larger networks.
