Abstract Traditional Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are designed for connecting pure electronic or mechanical sensors through wireless communication. Nowadays, WSNs are combined with other technologies like big data and cloud for data management. While combining the sensors (low level devices) with a high end network like Internet, data communication should be taken care of in the gateway between these two networks. With this type of WSNs, if all the sensors are in direct communication with the high end network, then a lot of energy will be consumed, requiring complex protocols for making this communication possible. So, to reduce the energy wastage, the clustering concept is used in WSN. Although so many complex and innovative clustering techniques are available for WSN, this paper describes a very simple clustering technique for environmental monitoring WSN with proven results.

Major Bottleneck

ensor nodes vulnerable becomes a major bottleneck restricting the wide application of wireless sensor networks WSNs (Wireless Sensor Networks). In order to satisfy the needs of industrial production and daily living environment monitoring, it is important to improve the survivability of wireless sensor networks in environmental monitoring application. In order to have a reliable environment monitoring system, this paper analyzed the damage types and causes of WSNs and the measurement methods of WSNs survivability. Then, we studied the fault detection method and finally realized the design can improve the survivability of the scheme. The robust guarantee scheme through hardware design and algorithm model, realized the remote wireless communication services and prolonged the network life cycle, so as to improve the survivability of the environmental monitoring system.

Di era Internet of Things (IoT). Siapapun dapat mengakses data dimanapun dan kapanpun. Semua data yang tersimpan dapat diakses dengan menggunakan perangkat seperti smartphone, laptop, dan komputer. Salah satu dari teknologi Internet of Things adalah smart city untuk memonitoring lingkungan. Untuk dapat mengetahui kondisi dan kualitas suatu lingkungan, seseorang tidak perlu lagi menunggu pengumuman informasi atau datang ke instansi terkait di pemerintahan. Pemanfaatan IoT pada monitoring lingkungan dapat di terapkan pada bidang peternakan. Hal ini dapat membantu seseorang dalam mengetahui kualitas dari kondisi lingkungan yang akan dimanfaatkan untuk peternakan. Dalam hal ini adalah bagaimana mengetahui peternakan yang cocok untuk diterapkan dilingkungan yang dia tuju untuk membangun peternakan sapi atau peternakan ayam. Menggunakan perangkat wireless sensor networks (WSN) untuk melakukan pengambilan nilai dari kondisi lingkungan tersebut dapat membantu mengetahui kondisi dan kualitas lingkungan. IoT membantu seseorang untuk membuka usaha dibidang peternakan yang cocok untuk wilayah tersebut tanpa harus melakukan banyak survey yang menelan banyak biaya. Hanya dengan menggunakan teknologi IoT siapapun dapat mendapatkan data kualitas lingkungan yang cocok untuk membuka sebuah peternakan dengan kondisi lingkungan yang sudah diketahui sebelumnya. Kata kunci: Internet of Things, Kondisi Lingkungan, Peternakan, Smart City, WSN. In the Internet of Things era (IoT). Everyone can access the data in anywhere and anytime. All stored data can be accessed using end devices such as smartphones, laptops and computers. One of the IoT technologies is a smart city for monitoring the environment. To be able to know the condition and quality of an environment, everyone does not need to wait for the announcement of information or come to the relevant agencies in the government. Utilization of IoT on Environmental Monitoring can be applied to the field of ranch. in this case it will be used for helping someone in knowing the quality of environmental conditions that will be used for. In this case it is how to find out which ranchs are suitable to be applied in the environment from the user that he want to construct cow or chicken ranch. Using wireless sensor networks (WSN) to retrieve values from these environmental conditions can help determine the condition and quality of the environment. IoT helps someone to open a business in field of ranchs that is suitable for region without having to do many survey. Only by using IoT, anyone can get suitable environmental quality data to open a ranch with environmental conditions that have been known before.Keywords: Environmental conditions, Internet of Things, Ranch, Smart City, WSN.

Faulty Node

Wireless sensor networks are used in machine learning for data communication and classification. Sensor nodes in network suffer from low battery power, so it is necessary to reduce energy consumption. One way of decreasing energy utilization is reducing the information transmitted by an advanced machine learning process called support vector machine. Further, nodes in WSN malfunction upon the occurrence of malicious activities. To overcome these issues, energy conserving and faulty node detection WSN is proposed. SVM optimizes data to be transmitted via one-hop transmission. It sends only the extreme points of data instead of transmitting whole information. This will reduce transmitting energy and accumulate excess energy for future purpose. Moreover, malfunction nodes are identified to overcome difficulties on data processing. Since each node transmits data to nearby nodes, the misbehaving nodes are detected based on transmission speed. The experimental results show that proposed algorithm provides better results in terms of reduced energy consumption and faulty node detection.
