scholarly journals Performance Analysis of Cognitive Radio Based Internet-Of-Things Network for Energy Efficiency and Spectrum Utilization

Energy and Spectrum are the two basic requirements in the realm of Internet-of-Things (IoT). The network of IoT is becoming larger day by day and the design of spectrum and energy efficient solution is a quite challenging task because of the rapid increase of connecting devices in IoT network. To make the system more energy and spectral efficient, energy harvesting and cognitive radio (CR) are the proficient solutions, respectively. This paper introduces a spectral and energy efficient design for CR based sensor networks. We present a network architecture, in which nodes or other sensing devices can use the spectrum opportunistically and energy harvesting can be done from different ambient sources. We then propose an 1) energy alancing scheme for heterogeneous network in which nodes will have different energy levels and 2) Cluster head (CH) selection scheme which will only be performed on the few nodes of network having the highest current energy to accomplish the ultimate goal of energy balancing in network, this analysis is performed with in the cluster. Furthermore, for the spectral efficiency, we propose a channel management scheme based on cognitive radio to allot the best available channel having highest reliability in respect of the bit error rate (BER) using. Comprehensive results exhibit the effectiveness in the performance of the proposed spectral and energy efficient schemes and show better performance over other schemes.

Internet of things have emerged enough due to its applications in a wide range of fields such as governance, industry, healthcare, and smart environments (home, smart, cities, and so on). Internet of things–based networks connect smart devices ubiquitously. In such scenario, the role of wireless sensor networks becomes vital in order to enhance the ubiquity of the Internet of things devices with lower cost and easy deployment. The sensor nodes are limited in terms of energy storage, processing, and data storage capabilities, while their radio frequencies are very sensitive to noise and interference. These factors consequently threaten the energy consumption, lifetime, and throughput of network. One way to cope with energy consumption issue is energy harvesting techniques used in wireless sensor network–based Internet of things. However, some recent studies addressed the problems of clustering and routing in energy harvesting wireless sensor networks which either concentrate on energy efficiency or quality of service. There is a need of an adequate approach that can perform efficiently in terms of energy utilization as well as to ensure the quality of service. In this article, a novel protocol named energy-efficient multi-attribute-based clustering scheme (E2-MACH) is proposed which addresses the energy efficiency and communication reliability. It uses selection criteria of reliable cluster head based on a weighted function defined by multiple attributes such as link statistics, neighborhood density, current residual energy, and the rate of energy harvesting of nodes. The consideration of such parameters in cluster head selection helps to preserve the node’s energy and reduce its consumption by sending data over links possessing better signal-to-noise ratio and hence ensure minimum packet loss. The minimized packet loss ratio contributes toward enhanced network throughput, energy consumption, and lifetime with better service availability for Internet of things applications. A set of experiments using network simulator 2 revealed that our proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy and other recent protocols in terms of first-node death, overall energy consumption, and network throughput.

Concerning the large amount of energy consumption during the cluster head selection stage and the unequal harvested energy among nodes in energy-harvesting wireless sensor networks (EH-WSNs), an energy- efficient cluster head selection scheme called EECHS is proposed in this paper. The scheme divides all nodes from one cluster into three types: cluster head (CH), cluster member (CM), and scheduling node (SN). The SN is designed to monitor and store real-time information about the residual energy of all nodes, including CMs and the CH, in the same cluster. In the CH selection stage, the SN specifies a corresponding CM as the new CH according to the monitored results, thereby reducing the energy consumption caused by CH selection. In this way, the task of CH selection is migrated from CHs to SNs and, thus, the CHs can preserve more energy for data forwarding. Moreover, the EECHS adjusts the transmission radius of some nodes dynamically to prevent these nodes from discarding the harvested energy if their batteries are fully charged. A series of experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed EECHS, and the results demonstrate that EECHS can provide an efficient CH selection scheme for EH-WSNs and is able to use the harvested energy more efficiently than corresponding competitors.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an establishment with sensors, base station, gateway, and network servers. IoT is an efficient and intellectual system that minimizes human exertion as well as right to use to real devices. This method also has an autonomous control property by which any device can control without any human collaboration. IoT-based automation has become very reasonable and it has been applied in several sectors such as manufacturing, transport, health care, consumer electronics, etc. In WSN’s smaller energy consumption sensors are expected to run independently for long phases. So much ongoing researches on implementing routing protocols for IoTbased WSNs.Energy consciousness is an essential part of IoT based WSN design issue. Minimalizing Energy consumption is well-thought-out as one of the key principles in the Expansion of routing protocols for the Internet of things. In this paper, we propose a Location based Energy efficient path routing for Internet of things and its applications its sensor position and clustering based finding the shortest path and real time implementation of Arduino based wireless sensor network architecture with the ESP8266 module. Finally, analyze the principles of Location-based energy-efficient routing and performance of QoS parameters, and then implemented automatic gas leakage detection and managing system.
