In this paper, a distributed algorithm to realize a dynamic function alternation is proposed. The algorithm enables sensor nodes to take over the damaged functions of their neighboring sensor nodes automatically in a wireless sensor network. After describing the concept of the function alternation, the algorithm is explained in detail with some evaluation results. Comparing the results obtained using the proposed algorithm with those obtained using non-function alternation methods shows that the proposed algorithm makes the initial functionality of each sensor function sustainable even if some sensor nodes are damaged. A wireless sensor network system dedicated to disaster monitoring is also introduced, as an application of the proposed function alternation algorithm.

In this paper we design a wireless sensor network of Zigbee technology, which consists of sensor nodes, sink nodes and monitoring software design. Through laboratory test, the design of the system is stable and reliable. Although the system can meet the requirements of Zigbee wireless communication hardware, but part of system hardware is relatively simple. If it is applied to the more complex place, we must add the corresponding module in the hardware and software. Adding node function module and the monitoring function in the Zigbee wireless network, it will meet the actual needs.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a decentralized network system which consists of sensor nodes, and these nodes are connected through wireless link. Due to decentralized network system and resource constraint WSN faces security threat. Malware (malicious signals, worm, Trajan horse, virus etc.) attacks on the sensor node of WSN and make them paralyze and steal information from the network. Malware attack also increases the energy consumption of Sensor nodes of WSN. It just begins to spread from an infected node, and spread across the entire WSN with the help of neighboring nodes. Therefore, security of WSN against attack of malware is an inescapable need. On the basis of earlier works and consideration of charging mechanism of sensor nodes, and considering the effect of coverage and connectivity, proposed a SILRD (Susceptible - Infectious – Low Energy – Recovered –Dead) model with vital dynamics. The propose model investigates the dynamics of malware propagation in WSN and also explain sensor node’s energy consumption. The system’s stability has analyzed in terms of local and global of malware-free and endemic equilibrium. For the investigation of system dynamics, the expression of basic reproduction number has computed, which is also utilized to analyze state of malware in WSN. The effect of charging, coverage and connectivity is explained in this paper.

Background: It is important to improve the quality of service by using congestion detection technology to find the potential congestion as early as possible in wireless sensor network. Methods: So an improved congestion control scheme based on traffic assignment and reassignment algorithm is proposed for congestion avoidance, detection and mitigation. The congestion area of the network is detected by predicting and setting threshold. When the congestion occurs, sensor nodes can be recovery quickly from congestion by adopting reasonable method of traffic reassignment. And the method can ensure the data in the congestion areas can be transferred to noncongestion areas as soon as possible. Results: The simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme can reduce the number of loss packets, improve the throughput, stabilize the average transmission rate of source node and reduce the end-to-end delay. Conclusion: : So the proposed scheme can enhance the overall performance of the network. Keywords: wireless sensor network; congestion control; congestion detection; congestion mitigation; traffic assignment; traffic reassignment.

To improve the efficiency of the remote monitoring system for logistics transportation, we proposed a remote monitoring system based on wireless sensor network and GPRS communication. The system can collect information from the wireless sensor network and transmit the information to the ZigBee interpreter. The monitoring system mainly includes the following parts: Car terminal, GPRS transmission network and monitoring center. Car terminal mainly consists by the Zigbee microcontroller and peripherals, wireless sensor nodes, RFID reader, GPRS wireless communication module composed of a micro-wireless monitoring network. The information collected by the sensor communicates through the GPRS and the monitoring center on the network coordinator, sends the collected information to the monitoring center, and the monitoring center realizes the information of the logistics vehicle in real time. The system has high applicability, meets the design requirements in the real-time acquisition and information transmission of the information of the logistics transport vehicles and goods, and realizes the function of remote monitoring.

Clustering the sensor nodes and choosing the way for routing the data are two key elements that would affect the performance of a wireless sensor network (WSN). In this paper, a novel clustering method is proposed and a simple two-hop routing model is adopted for optimizing the network layer of the WSN. New protocol is characterized by simplicity and efficiency (SE). During the clustering stage, no information needs to be shared among the nodes and the position information is not required. Through adjustment of two parameters in SE, the network on any scale (varies from the area and the number of nodes) could obtain decent performance. This work also puts forward a new standard for the evaluation of the network performance—the uniformity of the nodes' death—which is a complement to merely taking the system lifetime into consideration. The combination of these two aspects provides a more comprehensive guideline for designing the clustering or routing protocols in WSN.

The fault diagnosis technology have emerged and developed rapidly with the development of wireless sensor networks and requirements of applications improve. This paper describes two commonly used sensor network fault modeling. What is more, in order to solve this problem that sensor nodes are vulnerable and therefore produce wrong data, the paper proposes a distributed fault detecting algorithm based on spatio-temporal correlation among data of adjacent nodes. The simulation experiment shows that the algorithm can efficiently detect errors in the network and very few errors are introduced.
