With the increasing number of vehicles, the management of parking spaces in cities is becoming increasingly important in improving the quality of life and combating air pollution. Indeed, finding a parking space at peak times and in congested areas of the population becomes a huge challenge for drivers. To remedy this problem, most modern cities have smart parking. The equipment of these smart parking is mainly based on the implementation of wireless sensor networks (WSN) to monitor, track, and collect real-time information on the occupancy status of each parking space. This information is then made available to drivers who are looking for an available parking space. However, sensor nodes have limitations in terms of energy and communication that affect the performance and quality of the wireless sensor network. Therefore, the design of a self-organization protocol for WSN that minimizes power consumption and maximizes the longevity of the WSN network must be taken into account when implementing and developing a sustainable and viable intelligent parking system. In this paper, we propose a protocol for self-organization of wireless sensor networks (WSN) for the management of parking spaces in outdoor and urban car parks. This protocol is based on building clusters using ZigBee transmission technology for multihop communication. Each sensor node will be installed in the ground of each parking space to monitor its availability by sending the empty or busy state of that space to the gateway using cluster head nodes (CHs). This approach has a robust and efficient self-organizing algorithm that minimizes energy dissipation and increases the lifetime of sensor nodes and the WSN network. The simulation results show that parking management systems in outdoor and urban car parks using the self-organization protocol presented are efficient and sustainable in terms of energy consumption, reliability of data transmission, and the longevity of the WSN network compared to other existing parking systems that use different self-organizing protocols for wireless sensor networks.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of many sensor nodes, which are used for capturing the essential data from the environment and sending it to the Base Station (BS). Most of the research has been focused on energy challenges in WSN. There are many notable studies on minimization of energy consumption during the process of sensing the important data from the environment where nodes are deployed. Clustering-based routing protocols are an energy-efficient protocols that improve the lifetime of a wireless sensor network. The objective of the clustering is to decrease the total transmission power by aggregating into a single path for prolonging the network lifetime. However, the problem of unbalanced energy consumption exists in some cluster nodes in the WSNs. In this paper, a hybrid algorithm is proposed for clustering and cluster head (CH) election. The proposed routing protocol hybridized Penalized Fuzzy C-Means (PFCM) and Self Organization Map (SOM) algorithms with LEACH protocol for the optimum numbers of the CHs and the location of them. Simulation results reveal that the proposed algorithm outperforms other existing protocols in terms of network life, number of dead sensor nodes, energy consumption of the network and convergence rate of the algorithm in comparison to the LEACH algorithm.


Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) consists of a large amount of nodes connected in a self-directed manner. The most important problems in WSN are Energy, Routing, Security, etc., price of the sensor nodes and renovation of these networks is reasonable. The sensor node tools included a radio transceiver with an antenna and an energy source, usually a battery. WSN compute the environmental conditions such as temperature, sound, pollution levels, etc., WSN built the network with the help of nodes. A sensor community consists of many detection stations known as sensor nodes, every of which is small, light-weight and portable. Nodes are linked separately. Each node is linked into the sensors. In recent years WSN has grow to be an essential function in real world. The data’s are sent from end to end multiple nodes and gateways, the data’s are connected to other networks such as wireless Ethernet. MGEAR is the existing mechanism. It works with the routing and energy consumption. The principal problem of this work is choosing cluster head, and the selection is based on base station, so the manner is consumes energy. In this paper, develop the novel based hybrid protocol Low Energy Aware Gateway (LEAG). We used Zigbee techniques to reduce energy consumption and routing. Gateway is used to minimize the energy consumption and data is send to the base station. Nodes are used to transmit the data into the cluster head, it transmit the data into gateway and gateway compress and aggregate the data then sent to the base station. Simulation result shows our proposed mechanism consumes less energy, increased throughput, packet delivery ration and secure routing when compared to existing mechanism (MGEAR).


The fundamental issue is framing the sensor nodes and steering the information from sender node to receiver node in wireless sensor networks (WSN). To resolve this major difficulty, clustering algorithm is one of the accessible methods employed in wireless sensor networks. Still, clustering concept also faces some hurdles while transmitting the data from source to destination node. The sensor node is used to sense the data and the source node helps to convey the information and the intended recipient receives the sensed information. The clustering proposal will choose the cluster head depending on the residual energy and the sensor utility to its cluster members. The cluster heads will have equal cluster number of nodes. The complexity is generated in computing the shortest path and this can be optimized by Dijkstra’s algorithm. The optimization is executed by Dijkstra’s shortest path algorithm that eliminates the delay in packet delivery, energy consumption, lifetime of the packet and hop count while handling the difficulties. The shortest path calculation will improve the quality of service (QoS). QoS is the crucial problem due to loss of energy and resource computation as well as the privacy in wireless sensor networks. The security can be improvised in this projected work. The preventive metrics are discussed to upgrade the QoS facility by civilizing the privacy parameter called as Safe and Efficient Query Processing (SAFEQ) and integrating the extended watchdog algorithm in wireless sensor networks.

In wireless sensor networks (WSN), the majority of the inquiries are issued at the base station. WSN applications frequently require collaboration among countless sensor nodes in a network. One precedent is to persistently screen a region and report occasions. A sensor node in a WSN is initially allocated with an energy level, and based on the tasks of that sensor node, energy will be reduced. In this chapter, two proposed methods for secure network cluster formation and authentication are discussed. When a network is established then all the nodes in it must register with cluster head and then authentication is performed. The selection of cluster head is done using a novel selection algorithm and for authenticating the nodes. Also, a novel algorithm for authentication is used in this chapter. The validation and authorization of nodes are carried over by managing the keys in WSN. The results have been analyzed using NS2 simulator with an aid of list of relevant parameters.

The recent advances in sensing and communication technologies such as wireless sensor networks (WSN) have enabled low-priced distributed monitoring systems that are the foundation of smart cities. These advances are also helping to monitor smart cities and making our living environments workable. However, sensor nodes are constrained in energy supply if they have no constant power supply. Moreover, communication links can be easily failed because of unequal node energy depletion. The energy constraints and link failures affect the performance and quality of the sensor network. Therefore, designing a routing protocol that minimizes energy consumption and maximizes the network lifetime should be considered in the design of the routing protocol for WSN. In this paper, we propose an Energy-Efficient Unequal Chain Length Clustering (EEUCLC) protocol which has a suboptimal multihop routing algorithm to reduce the burden on the cluster head and a probability-based cluster head selection algorithm to prolong the network lifetime. Simulation results show that the EEUCLC mechanism enhanced the energy balance and prolonged the network lifetime compared to other related protocols.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) include several sensor nodes that have limited capabilities. The most critical restriction in WSNs is energy resources. Moreover, since each sensor node’s energy resources cannot be recharged or replaced, it is inevitable to propose various methods for managing the energy resources. Furthermore, this procedure increases the network lifetime. In wireless sensor networks, the cluster head has a significant impact on system global scalability, energy efficiency, and lifetime. Furthermore, the cluster head is most important in combining, aggregating, and transferring data that are received from other cluster nodes. One of the substantial challenges in a cluster-based network is to choose a suitable cluster head. In this paper, to select an appropriate cluster head, we first model this problem by using multi-factor decision-making according to the four factors, including energy, mobility, distance to centre, and the length of data queues. Then, we use the Cluster Splitting Process (CSP) algorithm and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method in order to provide a new method to solve this problem. These four factors are examined in our proposed approach, and our method is compared with the Base station Controlled Dynamic Clustering Protocol (BCDCP) algorithm. The simulation results show the proposed method in improving the network lifetime has better performance than the base station controlled dynamic clustering protocol algorithm. In our proposed method, the energy reduction is almost 5% more than the BCDCP method, and the packet loss rate in our proposed method is almost 25% lower than in the BCDCP method.

In order to solve the energy limited problem of sensor nodes in the wireless sensor networks (WSN), a fast clustering algorithm based on energy efficiency for wire1ess sensor networks is presented in this paper. In the system initialization phase, the deployment region is divided into several clusters rapidly. The energy consumption ratio and degree of the node are chosen as the selection criterion for the cluster head. Re-election of the cluster head node at this time became a local trigger behavior. Because of the range of the re-election is within the cluster, which greatly reduces the complexity and computational load to re-elect the cluster head node. Theoretical analysis indicates that the timing complexity of the clustering algorithm is O(1), which shows that the algorithm overhead is small and has nothing to do with the network size n. Simulation results show that clustering algorithm based on energy efficiency can provide better load balancing of cluster heads and less protocol overhead. Clustering algorithm based on energy efficiency can reduce energy consumption and prolong the network lifetime compared with LEACH protocol.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have proven their success in a variety of applications for monitoring physical and critical environments. However, the streaming nature, limited resources, and the unreliability of wireless communication are among the factors that affect the Quality of Service (QoS) of WSNs. In this paper, we propose a data mining technique to extract behavioral patterns about the sensor nodes during their operation. The behavioral patterns, which we refer to as Chronological Patterns, can be thought of as tutorials that teach about the set of sensors that report on events within a defined time interval and the order in which the events were detected. Chronological Patterns can serve as a helpful tool for predicting behaviors in order to enhance the performance of the WSN and thus improve the overall QoS. The proposed technique consists of: a formal definition of the Chronological Patterns and a new representation structure, which we refer to as Chlorotical Tree (CT), that facilities the mining of these patterns. To report about the performance of the CT, several experiments have been conducted to evaluate the CT using different density factors.


Many researches have been proposed for efficiency of data transmission from sensor nodes to sink node for energy efficiency in wireless sensor networks. Among them, cluster-based methods have been preferred In this study, we used the angle formed with the sink node and the distance of the cluster members to calculate the probability of cluster head. Each sensor node sends measurement values to header candidates, and the header candidate node measures the probability value of the header with the value received from its candidate member nodes. To construct the cluster members, the data transfer direction is considered. We consider angle, distance, and direction as cluster header possibility value. Experimental results show that data transmission is proceeding in the direction of going to the sink node. We calculated and displayed the header possibility value of the neighbor nodes of the sensor node and confirmed the candidates of the cluster header for data transfer as the value. In this study, residual energy amount of each sensor node is not considered. In the next study, we calculate the value considering the residual energy amount of the node when measuring the header possibility value of the cluster.
