Harvesting ambient energy to power Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is a promising approach. However, due to low recharging rates and the dynamics of renewable energy, energy harvesting sensors are unable to provide sufficient energy for sustained operation. This work designs a novel perpetual topology control that can enhance the energy efficiency and prolong network lifetime in energy harvesting sensor network. The proposed perpetual topology control (PTC) algorithm aims to ensure WSN sustainability and make the harvesting ambient energy usefully. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the PDTC algorithm in energy efficient.

Wireless Sensor Networks, have witnessed significant amount of improvement in research across various areas like Routing, Security, Localization, Deployment and above all Energy Efficiency. Congestion is a problem of  importance in resource constrained Wireless Sensor Networks, especially for large networks, where the traffic loads exceed the available capacity of the resources . Sensor nodes are prone to failure and the misbehaviour of these faulty nodes creates further congestion. The resulting effect is a degradation in network performance, additional computation and increased energy consumption, which in turn decreases network lifetime. Hence, the data packet routing algorithm should consider congestion as one of the parameters, in addition to the role of the faulty nodes and not merely energy efficient protocols .Nowadays, the main central point of attraction is the concept of Swarm Intelligence based techniques integration in WSN.  Swarm Intelligence based Computational Swarm Intelligence Techniques have improvised WSN in terms of efficiency, Performance, robustness and scalability. The main objective of this research paper is to propose congestion aware , energy efficient, routing approach that utilizes Ant Colony Optimization, in which faulty nodes are isolated by means of the concept of trust further we compare the performance of various existing routing protocols like AODV, DSDV and DSR routing protocols, ACO Based Routing Protocol  with Trust Based Congestion aware ACO Based Routing in terms of End to End Delay, Packet Delivery Rate, Routing Overhead, Throughput and Energy Efficiency. Simulation based results and data analysis shows that overall TBC-ACO is 150% more efficient in terms of overall performance as compared to other existing routing protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks.

: A serious problem in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is to attain high-energy efficiency as battery is used to power and have limited stored energy. They can’t be suitably replaced or recharged. Appearance of renewable energy harvesting techniques and their combination with sensor devices gives Energy Harvesting Wireless Sensor Networks (EHWSNs). IoT is now becoming part of our lives, comforting simplifying our routines and work life. IoT is very popular . It connects together, computes, communicates and performs the required task. IoT is actually a network of physical devices or things that can interact with each other to share information. This paper gives an overview of WSN and IoT, related work, different ways of connecting WSN with internet, development of smart home, challenges for WSN etc. Next a Framework for performance optimization in IoT is given and QC-PC-MCSC heuristic is analyzed in terms of Energy Efficiency and Life Time of a sensor on Energy Latency Density Design Space, a topology management application that is power efficient. QC-PC-MCSC and QC-MCSC are compared for Energy Efficiency and Life Time of a sensor over energy latency density design space, a topology management application.

Energy efficiency is the kernel issue in the designing of wireless sensor network(WSN) MAC protocols. Energy efficiency is a major consideration while designing wireless sensor network nodes. Most sensor network applications require energy autonomy for the complete lifetime of the node, which may span up to several years. These energy constraints require that the system be built such that Wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices. A network of these devices will collaborate for a common application such as environmental monitoring. Each component consumes minimum possible power, ensure the average successful transmission rate, decrease the data packet average waiting time, and reduce the average energy consumption. Influencing by the design principles of traditional layered protocol stack, current MAC protocol designing for wireless sensor networks (WSN) seldom takes load balance into consideration, which greatly restricts WSN lifetime. As a novel Forwarding Election-based MAC protocol, is presented to prolong WSN lifetime by means of improving energy efficiency and enhancing load balance.

Energy and security are very important issues in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) which need to be handled. These issues are interrelated because of limited energy there are some restrictions on implementation of security. Insider packet drop attack is one of the dangerous attacks for wireless sensor network that causes a heavy damage to WSN functionalities by dropping packets. It becomes necessary to identify such attack for secure routing of data in WSN. To detect this attack, trust mechanism has been proven as a successful technique. In this mechanism, each node verifies the trustworthiness of its neighbor node before packet transmission so that packets can only be transmitted to trustworthy nodes. But there is a problem of False Alarm with such trust-aware scheme. False alarm occurs when a good node’s trust value goes down due to natural packet dropping and being eliminated from the routing paths. This wastes network’s resources that further shortens network lifetime. In this paper, we have proposed a system for identification and recovery of false alarms (IRFA) which is the optimization of existing trust based system. But security solution needs to be energy efficient due to scarcity of energy resources in WSN. To provide energy efficiency, we have implemented proposed IRFA system in cluster based environment which detects insider packet drop attackers in an energy efficient manner. We have conducted OMNET++ simulation and results demonstrate that the proposed system performance is better than existing trust-based system in terms of packet delivery rate and energy efficiency which improves network lifetime.

MAC protocol design in Wireless sensor networks becomes vibrant research field for the past several years. In this paper an EE-Hybrid MAC protocol (Energy efficient hybrid Medium Access Control) has been proposed, which is energy efficient and low latency MAC protocol, which uses interrupt method to assign priority for certain wireless sensor nodes assumed to be present in critical loops of industrial process control domain. EE-Hybrid MAC overcomes some of the limitations in the existing approaches. Industrial wireless sensor network require a suitable MAC protocol which offers energy efficiency and capable of handling emergency situations in industrial automation domain. Time critical and mission critical applications demands not only energy efficiency but strict timeliness and reliability. Harsh environmental condition and dynamic network topologies may cause industrial sensor to malfunction, so the developed protocol must adapt to changing topology and harsh environment. Most of the existing MAC protocols have number of limitations for industrial application domain In industrial automation scenario, certain sensor loops are found to be time critical, where data’s have to be transferred without any further delay. The proposed EE-Hybrid MAC protocol is simulated in NS2 environment, from the result it is observed that proposed protocol provides better performance compared to the conventional MAC protocols.

A modern wireless sensor and its development majorly depend on distributed condition maintenance protocol. The medium access and its computing have been handled by multi hope sensor mechanism. In this investigation, WSN networks maintenance is balanced through condition-based access (CBA) protocol. The CBA is most useful for real-time 4G and 5G communication to handle internet assistance devices. The following CBA mechanism is energy efficient to increase the battery lifetime. Due to sleep mode and backup mode mechanism, this protocol maintains its energy efficiency as well as network throughput. Finally, 76% of the energy consumption and 42.8% of the speed of operation have been attained using CBI WSN protocol.
