For all of types of applications in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), coverage is a fundamental and hot topic research issue. To monitor the interest field and obtain the valid data, the paper proposes a wireless sensor network coverage optimization model based on improved whale algorithm. The mathematic model of node coverage in wireless sensor networks is developed to achieve full coverage for the interest area. For the model, the idea of reverse learning is introduced into the original whale swarm optimization algorithm to optimize the initial distribution of the population. This method enhances the node search capability and speeds up the global search. The experiment shows that this algorithm can effectively improve the coverage of nodes in wireless sensor networks and optimize the network performance.

Node Importance

This article analyzes the node importance in linear wireless sensor networks, which can be used to identify the key states of nodes that affect the wireless sensor network performance most. First, the sensor energy can be divided into energy of sensing event, energy of transmitting packets, and energy of receiving packets. The node residual energy of after data flow transmission in linear wireless sensor networks from source nodes and relay nodes is evaluated. Second, the node state is divided into four states based on the data packets transmitting. From the view of reliability theory, a data-flow model is analyzed to calculate the state probability of source node and relay node in the time period [0, t]. Third, the node importance is analyzed, and the ranking of node importance values can be used by designers and managers to identify the most important node for improving the wireless sensor network system reliability. At last, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the proposed methods.

Aiming at the problems of node redundancy and network cost increase in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks, this article proposes an improved whale optimization algorithm coverage optimization method. First, establish a mathematical model that balances node utilization, coverage, and energy consumption. Second, use the sine–cosine algorithm to improve the whale optimization algorithm and change the convergence factor of the original algorithm. The linear decrease is changed to the nonlinear decrease of the cosine form, which balances the global search and local search capabilities, and adds the inertial weight of the synchronous cosine form to improve the optimization accuracy and speed up the search speed. The improved whale optimization algorithm solves the heterogeneous wireless sensor network coverage optimization model and obtains the optimal coverage scheme. Simulation experiments show that the proposed method can effectively improve the network coverage effect, as well as the utilization rate of nodes, and reduce network cost consumption.

The success of the mission assigned to a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) depends heavily on the cooperation between the nodes of this network. Indeed, given the vulnerability of wireless sensor networks to attack, some entities may engage in malicious behavior aimed at undermining the proper functioning of the network. As a result, the selection of reliable nodes for task execution becomes a necessity for the network. To improve the cooperation and security of wireless sensor networks, the use of Trust Management Systems (TMS) is increasingly recommended due to their low resource consumption. The various existing trust management systems differ in their methods of estimating trust value. The existing ones are very rigid and not very accurate. In this paper, we propose a robust and accurate method (RATES) to compute direct and indirect trust between the network nodes. In RATES model, to compute the direct trust, we improve the Bayesian formula by applying the chaining of trust values, a local reward, a local penalty and a flexible global penalty based on the variation of successful interactions, failures and misbehaviors frequency. RATES thus manages to obtain a direct trust value that is accurate and representative of the node behavior in the network. In addition, we introduce the establishment of a simple confidence interval to filter out biased recommendations sent by malicious nodes to disrupt the estimation of a node's indirect trust. Mathematical theoretical analysis and evaluation of the simulation results show the best performance of our approach for detecting on-off attacks, bad-mouthing attacks and persistent attacks compared to the other existing approaches.

Wsn Lifetime

Energy efficiency is the kernel issue in the designing of wireless sensor network(WSN) MAC protocols. Energy efficiency is a major consideration while designing wireless sensor network nodes. Most sensor network applications require energy autonomy for the complete lifetime of the node, which may span up to several years. These energy constraints require that the system be built such that Wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices. A network of these devices will collaborate for a common application such as environmental monitoring. Each component consumes minimum possible power, ensure the average successful transmission rate, decrease the data packet average waiting time, and reduce the average energy consumption. Influencing by the design principles of traditional layered protocol stack, current MAC protocol designing for wireless sensor networks (WSN) seldom takes load balance into consideration, which greatly restricts WSN lifetime. As a novel Forwarding Election-based MAC protocol, is presented to prolong WSN lifetime by means of improving energy efficiency and enhancing load balance.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) studies have been carried out for multiple years. At this stage, many real WSNs have been deployed. Therefore, configuration and updating are critical issues. In this paper, we discuss the issues of configuring and updating a wireless sensor network (WSN). Due to a large number of sensor nodes, in addition to the limited resources of each node, manual configuring turns out to be impossible. Therefore, various auto-configuration approaches have been proposed to address the above challenges. In this survey, we present a comprehensive review of auto-configuration mechanisms with the taxonomy of classifications of the existing studies. For each category, we discuss and compare the advantages and disadvantages of related schemes. Lastly, future works are discussed for the remaining issues in this topic.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of several sensor nodes (SNs) that are powered by battery, so their lifetime is limited, which ultimately affects the lifespan and hence performance of the overall networks. Till now many techniques have been developed to solve this problem of WSN. Clustering is among the effective technique used for increasing the network lifespan. In this chapter, analysis of multi-hop routing protocol based on grid clustering with different selection criteria is presented. For analysis, the network is divided into equal-sized grids where each grid corresponds to a cluster and is assigned with a grid head (GH) responsible for collecting data from each SN belonging to respective grid and transferring it to the base station (BS) using multi-hop routing. The performance of the network has been analyzed for different position of BS, different number of grids, and different number of SNs.

Efficient Manner

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.
