scholarly journals A Proposed Method to Enhance the Quality of Data Communication in WSN using Modular Arithmetic

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are the current direction to monitor the resources and processes by developing fault tolerant distributed auto configure systems. High reliability is required to use WSN in safety systems, real time monitoring systems, guard systems and industrial control for all levels of the OSI model. To eliminate the noise and to process the information parallel by extending the signal spectrum using FHSS and Residue number system (RNS) based transformation. These approaches increase the reliability of data transmission in a WSN physical layer only. It is essential to have reliable data transmission in the network layer. When network topology is modified, packet loss is caused by overload and emergency or inaccessibility of units. Delay time increases because of packet retransmission. These considerations have led us to propose to work on “Performance studies on RNS based spread spectrum techniques for few communication channels”

Transmission errors are commonplace in communication systems. Wireless sensor networks like many other communication systems are susceptible to various forms of errors arising from sheer noise, heat and interference in sensor circuitry and from other forms of distortions. Research efforts in WSN have attempted to guarantee reliable and accurate data transmission from a target environment in the midst of these unwanted exposures. Many techniques have appeared and employed over the years to deal with the issue of transmission errors in communication systems. In this paper we present a new approach for single and multiple error control in WSN relying on the inherent fault tolerant feature of the Redundant Residue Number System. As an off shoot of Residue Number System, RRNS's fault tolerant capabilities help in building robust systems required for reliable data transmission in WSN systems. The Chinese Remainder Theorem and the Manhattan Distance Heuristics are used during the integer recovery process when detecting and correcting error digit(s) in a transmitted data. The proposed method performs considerably better in terms of data retrieval time than similar approaches by needing a smaller number of iterations to recover an originally transmitted data from its erroneous form. The approach in this work is also less computationally intensive compared to recent techniques during the error correction steps. Evidence of utility of the technique is illustrated in numerical examples.

The mass dispersal of digital communication requires the special measures of safety. The need for safe communication is greater than ever before, with computer networks now managing almost all of our business and personal affairs. Information security has become a major concern in our digital lives. The creation of new transmission technologies forces a specific protection mechanisms strategy particularly in data communication state.  We proposed a steganography method in this paper, which reads the message, converting it into its Residue Number System equivalent using the Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT), encrypting it using the Rivest Shamir Adleman (RSA) algorithm before embedding it in a digital image using the Least Significant Bit algorithm of steganography and then transmitting it through to the appropriate destination and from which the information required to reconstruct the original message is extracted. These techniques will enhance the ability to hide data and the hiding of ciphers in steganographic image and the implementation of CRT will make the device more efficient and stronger. It reduces complexity problems and improved execution speed and reduced the time taken for processing the encryption and embedding competencies.
