Predefined Criterion

Clustering in wireless sensor network is important to increase the lifetime of sensor network. LEACH protocol is one of the clustering routing protocols in wireless sensor networks. In LEACH each node has the equal probability to be a cluster head, due to which the energy dissipation of every node is balanced. In LEACH protocol, time is divided into many rounds and in each round, all the nodes wishes to be cluster head according to a predefined criterion. This paper focuses on the approach that how could the number of cluster heads are limited in the network, if we limit the number of cluster head to a percentage of total nodes in the network, we can increase the lifetime of the network and decrease the energy dissipation per node. These functions can be used to enhance the performance of cluster-based wireless sensor networks in terms of lifetime and throughput.

Route Of Transmission

Wireless sensor network consists of various sensor nodes connected through wireless media. Sensor nodes are tiny devices having lesser energy capabilities. Sensor nodes are either ad-hoc or mobile in their environment. Wireless sensor network route of transmission media is discovered by routing protocols and responsible for secure communication between sensor nodes. Energy is a precious resource of sensor nodes, and the entire lifetime of WSNs is depending on the energy capability of the sensor nodes. The fundamental problem is how to organize topology of WSN for deployed sensor nodes with lesser power consumption as possible. Major problems in wireless sensor networks which consume extra energy are interference, control message overhead, packet delay, unnecessary transmission, and bandwidth utilization. Therefore, energy efficient techniques are needed to overcome these problems. Hierarchical routing is the best routing method for finding optimal path between sensor nodes which enhance the lifetime of the network. This paper focuses towards various hierarchical energy efficient routing in wireless sensor networks and analyzes various features of WSN that should consider during designing of routing protocols.

Trust Evaluation

21st century is considered as the era of communication, and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have assumed an extremely essential job in the correspondence period. A wireless sensor network is defined as a homogeneous or heterogeneous system contains a large number of sensors, namely called nodes used to monitor different environments in cooperatives. WSN is composed of sensor nodes (S.N.), base stations (B.S.), and cluster head (C.H.). The popularity of wireless sensor networks has been increased day by day exponentially because of its wide scope of utilizations. The applications of wireless sensor networks are air traffic control, healthcare systems, home services, military services, industrial & building automation, network communications, VAN, etc. Thus the wide range of applications attracts attackers. To secure from different types of attacks, mainly intruder, intrusion detection based on dynamic state context and hierarchical trust in WSNs (IDSHT) is proposed. The trust evaluation is carried out in hierarchical way. The trust of sensor nodes is evaluated by cluster head (C.H.), whereas the trust of the cluster head is evaluated by a neighbor cluster head or base station. Hence the content trust, honest trust, and interactive trust are put forward by combining direct evaluation and feedback based evaluation in the fixed hop range. In this way, the complexity of trust management is carried in a hierarchical manner, and trust evaluation overhead is minimized.

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.

Cluster Head Selection

Background & Objective: Wireless sensor networks are made up of huge amount of less powered small sensor nodes that can audit the surroundings, collect meaningful data, and send it base station. Various energy management plans that pursue to lengthen the endurance of overall network has been proposed over the years, but energy conservation remains the major challenge as the sensor nodes have finite battery and low computational capabilities. Cluster based routing is the most fitting system to help for burden adjusting, adaptation to internal failure, and solid correspondence to draw out execution parameters of wireless sensor network. Low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy is an efficient clustering based hierarchical protocol that is used to enhance the lifetime of sensor nodes in wireless sensor network. It has some basic flaws that need to be overwhelmed in order to reduce the energy utilization and inflating the nodes lifetime. Methods : In this paper, an effective auxiliary cluster head selection is used to propose a new enhanced GC-LEACH algorithm in order to minimize the energy utilization and prolonged the lifespan of wireless sensor network. Results & Conclusion: Simulation is performed in NS-2 and the outcomes show that the GC-LEACH outperforms conventional LEACH and its existing versions in the context of frequent cluster head rotation in various rounds, number of data packets collected at base station, as well as reduces the energy consumption 14% - 19% and prolongs the system lifetime 8% - 15%.

Recently, heterogeneous wireless sensor network (HWSN) routing protocols have drawn more and more attention. Various HWSN routing protocols have been proposed to improve the performance of HWSNs. Among these protocols, hierarchical HWSN routing protocols can improve the performance of the network significantly. In this paper, we will evaluate three hierarchical HWSN protocols proposed recently—EDFCM, MCR, and EEPCA—together with two previous classical routing protocols—LEACH and SEP. We mainly focus on the round of the first node dies (also called the stable period) and the number of packets sent to sink, which is an important aspect to evaluate the monitoring ability of a protocol. We conduct a lot of experiments and simulations on Matlab to analyze the performance of the five routing protocols.

The wide deployment of wireless sensor networks is the primary reason behind the advancement of numerous routing protocols. In this context, sensors need to be remotely conveyed in unattended situations. Further, propels in wireless sensor network innovation have ensured accessibility and minimal effort in terms of sensor hubs with a capacity to sense various physical and natural environment conditions, in addition to wireless communication and data processing. Moreover, wireless sensor networks are rather different from regular and cellular networks, which comprise nodes with restricted bandwidth and energy. However, the most important limitation of wireless sensor networks is their characteristic limited energy resources. Furthermore, there is an imbalance of power consumption in their sensor nodes. Therefore, it is preferable to distribute the amount of energy throughout a wireless sensor network to minimize the maintenance and maximize the overall system performance. To this end, this paper suggests a new strategy in wireless sensor network dissemination and routing protocols referred to as the Fast Simple Flooding Strategy, which focuses on energy efficiency as a crucial design objective for routing protocols used in wireless sensor networks, without the overhead of other design factors, and reduces end-to-end latency. Additionally, this new strategy can be listed under flat approaches; it is simple and very fast in delivering the packet to the sink and does not require additional equipment or complex mathematical operations. It also resolves the major drawbacks of classic flooding and gossiping.

<p>A Wireless Sensor Network is a wirelessly configured Sensor Node with limited power such as a battery. There are many Wireless Sensor Network Protocols to increase energy efficiency, among which LEACH Protocol and SEP are typical. The LEACH Protocol is mainly used for homogeneous sensor networks with the same initial energy, and SEP is used for heterogeneous sensor networks with different initial energies. In the case of SEP-E, another heterogeneous sensor with different initial energy is added. SEP and SEP-E provide a higher probability of Cluster Head election for node types with more energy than Normal Nodes. Since the current residual energy of the node is not confirmed, even if the energy is low, the Cluster Head may be elected because of the node type. In this paper, considering the residual energy of a node when a Cluster Head is elected, we increase the probability of electing a Cluster Head with more residual energy. Cluster Head consumes a lot of energy. A node with a lot of residual energy is elected as a Cluster Head, so the network lifetime can be used for a long time.</p>

Energy Efficient Routing

The technological advances in wireless communication systems and digital data processing techniques has given rise to many innovative intelligent networks. One such network is wireless sensor network (WSN). In recent past, huge growth has been perceived in the applications of WSN. In wireless sensor network, the battery powered sensor nodes are scattered in a monitoring area and it is impossible to replace the batteries of sensor nodes after deployment. Therefore, energy efficiency remains a prime concern in design of WSNs. The routing protocols help to find energy efficient routes and increases the lifetime of WSNs. The cluster-based routing techniques play an important role in design of energy efficient WSNs. However, authors analyzed two types of sensor networks in the literature such as homogeneous and heterogeneous networks. In homogeneous clustering, all sensor nodes possess same level of initial energy and cluster head (CH) formation probability of each node in such networks remains equal. In heterogeneous clustering, the nodes are bifurcated into three energy levels such as normal node, advanced node and super node. Therefore, the CH formation probability of a node in such network depends on the type of node. This paper presented a survey on recent energy efficient routing protocols in homogeneous as well as heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. The energy efficient routing protocols are classified based on some quality of service (QoS) metrics such as energy efficiency, network lifetime, network stability, cluster head selection threshold and heterogeneity levels.
