At present scenario, sensor devices are used in various fields for gathering information so all those data should be secured safely. Securing data is an important role in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). WSN is extremely essential for the purpose of reducing the complete redundancy and energy consumption during gathering data among sensor nodes. Optimized data aggregation is needed at cluster head and Base Station (BS) for secured data transmission. Data aggregation is performed in all routers while forwarding data from source to destination node. The complete life time of sensor networks is reducing because of using energy inefficient nodes for the purpose of aggregation. So this paper introduces the optimized methods for securing data (OMSD) which is trust based weights and also completely about the attacks and some methods for secured data transmission.

Abstract In Wireless sensor network, the major issues are security and energy consumption. There may be several numbers of malicious nodes present in sensor networks. Several techniques have been proposed by the researchers to identify these malicious nodes. WSNs contain many sensor nodes that sense their environment and also transmit their data via multi-hop communication schemes to the base station. These sensor nodes provides power supply using battery and the energy consumption of these batteries must be low. Securing the data is to avoid attacks on these nodes and data communication. The aggregation of data helps to minimize the amount of messages transmitted within the network and thus reduces overall network energy consumption. Moreover, the base station may distinguish the encrypted and aggregated data based on the encryption keys during the decryption of the aggregated data. In this paper, two aspects of the problem is concerned, we investigate the efficiency of data aggregation: first, how to develop cluster-based routing algorithms to achieve the lowest energy consumption for aggregating data, and second, security issues in wsn. By using Network simulator2 (NS2) this scheme is simulated. In the proposed scheme, energy consumption, packet delivery ratio and throughput is analyzed. The proposed clustering, routing, and protection protocol based on the MCSDA algorithm shows significant improvement over the state-of - the-art protocol.

Data Aggregation Scheduling

The minimum latency data aggregation schedule is one of the fundamental problems in wireless sensor networks. Most existing works assumed that the transmission ranges of sensor nodes cannot be adjusted. However, sensors with adjustable transmission ranges have advantages in energy saving, reducing transmission interference and latency. In this paper, we study the minimum latency conflict-aware data aggregation scheduling problem with adjustable transmission radii: given locations of sensors along with a base station, all sensors could adjust their transmission radii and each sensor's interference radius is α times of its transmission radius, we try to find a data aggregation schedule in which the data from all sensors can be transmitted to the base station without conflicts, such that the latency is minimized. We first partition the set of all nodes into two parts: the major set and the minor set. Then, we design different scheduling strategies for the two sets, respectively. Finally, we propose an approximation algorithm for the problem and prove the performance ratio of the algorithm is bounded by a nearly constant. Our experimental results evaluate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

Even in difficult places to reach, the new networking technique allows the easy deployment of sensor networks, although these wireless sensor networks confront a lot of constraints. The major constraint is related to the quality of information sent by the network. The wireless sensor networks use different methods to achieve data to the base station. Data aggregation is an important one, used by these wireless sensor networks. But this aggregated data can be subject to several types of attacks and provides security is necessary to resist against malicious attacks, secure communication between severely resource constrained sensor nodes while maintaining the flexibility of the topology changes. Recently, several secure data aggregation schemes have been proposed for wireless sensor networks, it provides better security compared with traditional aggregation.

Wireless sensor networks are energy constrained. Data aggregation is an important mechanism for achieving energy efficiency in such networks. The aggregation reduces redundancy in data transmission which results in improved energy usage. Several security issues are there in data aggregation, which includes data confidentiality, data integrity, availability, and freshness. Such issues become complex since WSN is deployed in hostile and unattended environment. So the sensor nodes may fail and compromised by adversaries. Secured data aggregation in sensor network is a topic of research.  Many solutions are proposed for secured data aggregation, using different encryption methods. Homomorphic encryption is one of such technique. In homomorphic encryption, all the nodes participate in the aggregation. Here, nodes can’t see any intermediate or final result but the aggregation is efficient. In this paper, secured data aggregation methods are classified and the performance is compared in terms of integrity and confidentiality.

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are a collection of autonomous collection of motes. Sensor motes are usually Low computational and low powered. In WSN Sensor motes are used to collect environmental data collection and pass that data to the base station. Data aggregation is a common technique widely used in wireless sensor networks. [2] Data aggregation is the process of collecting the data from multiple sensor nodes by avoiding the redundant data transmission and that collected data has been sent to the base station (BS) in single route. Secured data aggregation deals with Securing aggregated data collected from various sources. Many secured data aggregation algorithms has been proposed by many researchers. Symmetric key based cryptography schemes are not suitable when wireless sensor network grows. Here we are proposing an approach to secured data aggregation in wireless sensor networks using Asymmetric key based Elliptic Curve cryptography technique. Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) [1] is an approach to public-key cryptography based on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields. Elliptic Curve Cryptography requires smaller keys compared to non-Elliptic curve cryptography (based on plain Galois fields) to provide equivalent security. The proposed technique of secure data aggregation is used to improve the sensor network lifetime and to reduce the energy consumption during aggregation process.

Data aggregation is an essential operation to reduce energy consumption in large-scale wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A compromised node may forge an aggregation result and mislead base station into trusting a false reading. Efficient and secure aggregation scheme is critical in WSN applications due to the stringent resource constraints. In this paper, we propose a method to build up the representative-based aggregation tree in the WSNs such that the sensing data are aggregated along the route from the leaf cell to the root of the tree. In the cinema of large-scale and high-density sensor nodes, representative-based aggregation tree can reduce the data transmission overhead greatly by directed aggregation and cell-by-cell communications. It also provides security services including the integrity, freshness, and authentication, via detection mechanism in the cells.

Second Phase

Energy issue is one of the most important problems in wireless sensor networks. They consist of low-power sensor nodes and a few base station nodes. They must be adaptive and efficient in data transmission to sink in various areas. This paper proposes an aware-routing protocol based on clustering and recursive search approaches. The paper focuses on the energy efficiency issue with various measures such as prolonging network lifetime along with reducing energy consumption in the sensor nodes and increasing the system reliability. Our proposed protocol consists of two phases. In the first phase (network development phase), the sensors are placed into virtual layers. The second phase (data transmission) is related to routes discovery and data transferring so it is based on virtual-based Classic-RBFS algorithm in the lake of energy problem environments but, in the nonchargeable environments, all nodes in each layer can be modeled as a random graph and then begin to be managed by the duty cycle method. Additionally, the protocol uses new topology control, data aggregation, and sleep/wake-up schemas for energy saving in the network. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol is optimal in the network lifetime and packet delivery parameters according to the present protocols.

Sensors are subjectively spread in the flighty conditions. Sensor nodes are self-sufficient, mindful and self-configurable objects for data accumulation and transmission. Sensor nodes are battery-worked devices. The battery reinforcement time depends on the computational capacity and their detecting range. Joint effort is fundamental one where the nodes deal with the data stream in network in vitality productive way. Sensors in WSN are composed to detect the data. The sensors are fit for calculations and contain wireless correspondence parts. Nodes consolidate the data gathered from each sensor hub in network. The gathered data are sent to the base station where it gives helpful data. The objective of the suggested paper is to contrast the efficiency of TAG in regards to power performance in contrast with and also without information gathering in wireless sensor networks as well as to evaluate the viability of the protocol in an atmosphere where sources are restricted.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are constructed by interconnecting miniature sensor nodes for monitoring the environment uninterrupted. These miniature nodes are having the sensing, processing and communication capability in a smaller scale powered by a battery unit. Proper energy conservation is required for the entire system. Clustering mechanism in WSN advances the lifetime and stability in the network. It achieves data aggregation and reduces the number of data transmission to the Base station (BS). But the Cluster Head (CH) nodes are affected by rapid energy depletion problem due to overload. A CH node spends its energy for receiving data from its member nodes, aggregation and transmission to the BS. In CH election, multiple overlapping factors makes it difficult and inefficient which costs the lifetime of the network. In recent years, Fuzzy Logic is widely used for CH election mechanism for WSN. But the underlying problem of the CHs node continues. In this research work, a new clustering algorithm DHCFL is proposed which elects two CHs for a cluster which shares the load of a conventional CH node. Data reception and aggregation will be done by CH aggregator (CH-A) node and data transmission to the BS will be carried over by CH relay (CH-R) node. Both CH-A and CH-R nodes are elected through fuzzy logic which addresses the uncertainty in the network too. The proposed algorithm DHCFL is compared and tested in different network scenarios with existing clustering algorithms and it is observed that DHCFL outperforms other algorithms in all the network scenarios.

We study data aggregation for region-based top-k queries in wireless sensor networks, which is one kind of internet of things. Because the energy of sensor nodes is limited and a sensor node will die if it has no energy left, one of the important targets for all protocols in wireless sensor networks is to decrease the energy consumption of the sensor nodes. For a sensor node, communication cost is much more than other kinds of energy cost such as energy cost on computation and data storage. Thus, a very efficient way to decrease the energy cost of the sensor nodes is to decrease the quality of the sensing data that will be transmitted to the base station. In this paper, we use the technique of data aggregation to achieve this goal, and propose an algorithm to construct a novel Data Aggregation Tree (DAT) in the query region. To check the efficiency of DAT, we have made a simulation on OMNET, and the results show that DAT can shrink large quality of data when they are transmitted to the base station, and the life time of the sensor networks can thus be prolonged..
