Many applications in wireless sensor networks perform localization of nodes over an extended period of time. Optimal selection algorithm poses new challenges to the overall transmission power levels for target detection, and thus, localized energy optimized sensor management strategies are necessary for improving the accuracy of target tracking. In this chapter, a proposal plan to develop a Bayesian localized energy optimized sensor distribution scheme for efficient target tracking in wireless sensor network is designed. The sensor node localization is done with Bayesian average, which estimates the sensor node's energy optimality. Then the sensor nodes are localized and distributed based on the Bayesian energy estimate for efficient target tracking. The sensor node distributional strategy improves the accuracy of identifying the targets to be tracked quickly. The performance is evaluated with parameters such as accuracy of target tracking, energy consumption rate, localized node density, and time for target tracking.

In wireless sensor network application, the localization of nodes are carried out for extended life time of the node. Many applications in wireless sensor network perform localization of nodes over an extended period of time with energy variance. However, optimal selection algorithm poses new challenges to the overall transmission power levels for target detection, and thus localized energy optimized sensor management strategies are necessary for improving the accuracy of target tracking. In this work, it is proposed to develop a Bayesian Localized Energy Optimized Sensor Distribution (BLEOSD) scheme for efficient target tracking in Wireless Sensor Network. The sensor node localized with Bayesian average scheme thatestimates the sensor node’s energy are optimized as per data transfer capacity verification. The Bayesian average energy level of the sensor network is compared with the energy of each sensor node. The sensor nodes are localized and energy distribution based on the Bayesian energy estimate for efficient target tracking. The sensor node distribution strategy improves the accuracyto identify the targets effectively. Experiments are conducted using simulation of WSN by varying number of nodes, energy levels of the node and target object density using the Network Simulator Tool (NS2) The proposed BLEOSD technique is compared with various recent methods by evaluating accuracy of target tracking, energy consumption rate, localized node density and time for target tracking. The experimental results shows that the performance of BLESOD is more encouraging compared to contemporary methods.

With the expansion of smart agriculture, wireless sensor networks are being increasingly applied. These networks collect environmental information, such as temperature, humidity, and CO2 rates. However, if a faulty sensor node operates continuously in the network, unnecessary data transmission adversely impacts the network. Accordingly, a data-based fault-detection algorithm was implemented in this study to analyze data of sensor nodes and determine faults, to prevent the corresponding nodes from transmitting data; thus, minimizing damage to the network. A cloud-based “farm as a service” optimized for smart farms was implemented as an example, and resource management of sensors and actuators was provided using the oneM2M common platform. The effectiveness of the proposed fault-detection model was verified on an integrated management platform based on the Internet of Things by collecting and analyzing data. The results confirm that when a faulty sensor node is not separated from the network, unnecessary data transmission of other sensor nodes occurs due to continuous abnormal data transmission; thus, increasing energy consumption and reducing the network lifetime.

Wireless sensor networks have been the subject of intense research in recent years. Sensor nodes are used in wide range of applications such as security, military, and environmental monitoring. One of the most interesting applications in wireless sensor networks is target tracking, which mainly consists in detecting and monitoring the motion of mobile targets. In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey of target tracking approaches. We then analyze them according to several metrics. We also discuss some of the challenges that influence the performance of tracking schemes. In the end, we conduct detailed analysis and comparison between these algorithms and we conclude with some future directions.

In target tracking wireless sensor networks, choosing a part of sensor nodes to execute tracking tasks and letting the other nodes sleep to save energy are efficient node management strategies. However, at present more and more sensor nodes carry many different types of sensed modules, and the existing researches on node selection are mainly focused on sensor nodes with a single sensed module. Few works involved the management and selection of the sensed modules for sensor nodes which have several multi-mode sensed modules. This work proposes an efficient node and sensed module management strategy, called ENSMM, for multisensory WSNs (wireless sensor networks). ENSMM considers not only node selection, but also the selection of the sensed modules for each node, and then the power management of sensor nodes is performed according to the selection results. Moreover, a joint weighted information utility measurement is proposed to estimate the information utility of the multiple sensed modules in the different nodes. Through extensive and realistic experiments, the results show that, ENSMM outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches by decreasing the energy consumption and prolonging the network lifetime. Meanwhile, it reduces the computational complexity with guaranteeing the tracking accuracy.


In wireless sensor networks, localization is a way to track the exact location of sensor nodes. Occasionally node localization may not be accurate due to the absence or limitation of anchor nodes. To reduce the mean localization error, soft computing techniques such as BAT and bacterial foraging driven bat algorithm (BDBA) are utilized in literature. For better localization with reduced error, in this paper, firefly driven bat algorithm (FDBA) is proposed, which combines the heuristic of firefly and BAT algorithms. Our proposed FDBA algorithm provides better localization in terms of error of 60% and 40 % less error as compared to BAT and BDBA algorithm, respectively.


Sensor nodes are exceedingly energy compelled instrument, since it is battery operated instruments. In wsn network, every node is liable to the data transmission through the wireless mode [1]. Wireless sensor networks (WSN) is made of a huge no. of small nodes with confined functionality. The essential theme of the wireless sensor network is energy helpless and the WSN is collection of sensor. Every sensor terminal is liable to sensing, store and information clan and send it forwards into sink. The communication within the node is done via wireless network [3].Energy efficiency is the main concentration of a desining the better routing protocol. LEACH is a protocol. This is appropriate for short range network, since imagine that whole sensor node is capable of communication with inter alia and efficient to access sink node, which is not always correct for a big network. Hence, coverage is a problem which we attempt to resolve [6]. The main focus within wireless sensor networks is to increase the network life-time span as much as possible, so that resources can be utilizes efficiently and optimally. Various approaches which are based on the clustering are very much optimal in functionality. Life-time of the network is always connected with sensor node’s energy implemented at distant regions for stable and defect bearable observation [10].


This paper develops a method to detect the failures of wireless links between one sensor nodes to another sensor node in WSN environment. Every node in WSN has certain properties which may vary time to time based on its ability to transfer or receive the packets on it. This property or features are obtained from every node and they are classified using Neural Networks (NN) classifier with predetermined feature set which are belonging to both weak link and good link between nodes in wireless networks. The proposed system performance is analyzed by computing Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Link Failure Detection Rate (LFDR) and latency report.
