Wireless Sensor Networks are very convenient to monitor structures or even materials, as in McBIM project (Materials communicating with the Building Information Modeling). This project aims to develop the concept of “communicating concretes,” which are concrete elements embedding wireless sensor networks, for applications dedicated to Structure Health Monitoring in the construction industry. Due to applicative constraints, the topology of the wireless sensor network follows a chain-based structure. Node batteries cannot be replaced or easily recharged, it is crucial to evaluate the energy consumed by each node during the monitoring process. This area has been extensively studied leading to different energy models to evaluate energy consumption for chain-based structures. However, no simple, practical, and analytical network energy models have yet been proposed. Energy evaluation models of periodic data collection for chain-based structures are proposed. These models are compared and evaluated with an Arduino XBee–based platform. Experimental results show the mean prediction error of our models is 5%. Realizing aggregation at nodes significantly reduces energy consumption and avoids hot-spot problem with homogeneous consumptions along the chain. Models give an approximate lifetime of the wireless sensor network and communicating concretes services. They can also be used online by nodes for a self-assessment of their energy consumptions.

In this paper, a monitoring technique based on the wireless sensor network is investigated. The sensor nodes used for monitoring are developed in a simulation environment. Accordingly, the structure and workflow of wireless sensor network nodes are designed. Time-division multiple access (TDMA) protocol has been chosen as the medium access technique to ensure that the designed technique operates in an energy-efficient manner and packet collisions are not experienced. Fading channels, i.e., no interference, Ricean and Rayleigh, are taken into consideration. Energy consumption is decreased with the help of ad-hoc communication of sensor nodes. Throughput performance for different wireless fading channels and energy consumption are evaluated. The simulation results show that the sensor network can quickly collect medium information and transmit data to the processing center in real time. Besides, the proposed technique suggests the usefulness of wireless sensor networks in the terrestrial areas.

Background: Wireless sensor networks are considered as one of the 21st century's most important technologies. Sensors in wireless sensor networks usually have limited and sometimes non-rechargeable batteries, which they are supposed to be preserved for months or even years. That's why the energy consumption in these networks is of a great importance. Objective: One way to improve energy consumption in a wireless sensor network is to use clustering. In clustered networks, one node is known as the cluster head and other nodes as normal members, which normal nodes send the collected data to the cluster head, and the cluster head sends the information to the base station either by a single step or by multiple steps. Method: Using clustering simplifies resource management and increases scalability, reliability, and the network lifetime. Although the cluster formation involves a time- overhead and how to choose the cluster head is another problem, but its advantages are more than its disadvantages. : The primary aim of this study is to offer a solution to reduce energy consumption in the sensor network. In this study, during the selection of cluster heads, Honeybee Algorithm is used and also for routing, Harmonic Search Algorithm is used. In this paper, the simulation is performed by using MATLAB software and the proposed method is compared with the Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) and the multi-objective fuzzy clustering algorithm (MOFCA). Result and Conclusion: By simulations of this study, we conclude that this research has remarkably increased the network lifetime with respect to EECS, LEACH, and MOFCA algorithms. In view of the energy constraints of the wireless sensor network and the non-rechargeable batteries in most cases, providing such solutions and using metaheuristic algorithms can result in a significant reduction in energy consumption and, consequently, increase in the network lifetime.

Background & Objective: In this paper, a new energy efficient LEACH-based protocol for wireless sensor network is presented. One of the main issues in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is the battery consumption. In fact, changing batteries is a time consuming task and expensive. It is even impossible in many remote WSNs. Methods: The main goal of the presented protocol is to decrease the energy consumption of each node and increase the network lifetime. Lower power consumption results in longer battery lifetime. This protocol takes the advantage of sub-threshold technique and bee colony algorithm in order to optimize the energy consumption of a WSN. Simulation results show that the energy consumption of the wireless sensor network reduces by 25 percent using STBCP in comparison with recent LEACHbased protocols. It has been shown that the average energy of the network remains balanced and the distribution of residual energy in each round is equitable. Conclusion: In addition, the lifetime of a network using STBCP protocol has been increased by 23 percent regarding recently presented routing protocols.

Advances in wireless technologies and small computing devices, wireless sensor networks can be superior technology in many applications. Energy supply constraints are one of the most critical measures because they limit the operation of the sensor network; therefore, the optimal use of node energy has always been one of the biggest challenges in wireless sensor networks. Moreover, due to the limited lifespan of nodes in WSN and energy management, increasing network life is one of the most critical challenges in WSN. In this investigation, two computational distributions are presented for a dynamic wireless sensor network; in this fog-based system, computing load was distributed using the optimistic and blind method between fog networks. The presented method with the main four steps is called Distribution-Map-Transfer-Combination (DMTC) method. Also, Fuzzy Multiple Attribute Decision-Making (Fuzzy MADM) is used for clustering and routing network based on the presented distribution methods. Results show that the optimistic method outperformed the blind one and reduced energy consumption, especially in extensive networks; however, in small WSNs, the blind scheme resulted in an energy efficiency network. Furthermore, network growth leads optimistic WSN to save higher energy in comparison with blinded ones. Based on the results of complexity analysis, the presented optimal and blind methods are improved by 28% and 48%, respectively.

Protocols for wireless sensor networks are generally designed following the layered protocol stack where layers are independent. Uncorrelated decisions coming from different layers may affect certain metrics such as the latency of communications, the energy consumption, etc. Cross-layer approaches overcome this problem by exploiting the dependencies between the layers. In this article, the authors propose latency and energy mac-aware routing for wireless sensor networks (LEMAR-WSN), a new cross-layer routing approach using information of the TDMA schedule and exploiting the information of the energy consumed by each node in order to optimize the latency of communications and the energy consumption when relaying information to the sink in a wireless sensor network. Simulation results show that the proposed approach improves the average latency of communications up to 20% and the average.

In order to solve the problem of unbalanced load consumption of nodes for wireless sensor networks (WSNs), this paper proposes a load-balanced routing algorithm based on cluster heads optimization for wireless sensor network. The proposed algorithm first applies first-order wireless transmission model to calculate the optimal number of clusters, then calculate nodes competitiveness rating by fuzzy algorithm considering the residual energy of node and distance from the node to base station, cluster head selection uses unequal clustering algorithm according to the competitiveness of nodes. By node competitiveness and energy management mechanism which cooperate with each other to select the best cluster heads. Use connected optimization between clusters to search multi-hop paths base station for reducing energy consumption of node, and consider transmission energy consumption, residual energy, transmission distance and other factors. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm compared with LEACH and UCDP algorithm, can balance loading and effectively extend the life cycle of wireless sensor network.
