Balancing the load among sensor nodes is a major challenge for the long run operation of wireless sensor networks. When a sensor node becomes overloaded, the likelihood of higher latency, energy loss, and congestion becomes high. In this paper, we propose an optimal load balanced clustering for hierarchical cluster‐based wireless sensor networks. We formulate the network design problem as mixed‐integer...
Reaching the coverage concern through the least number of sensors has received the most attention, while meeting the design goals through random node distribution is an utmost challenge. The deployment of nodes in deterministic fashion is necessary and often viable when node positions affect considerably their operation or when sensors are expensive, while random nodes' distribution is the only feasible...
Many researches emphasize on minimizing delays in forwarding data through the wireless sensor network, but different applications have different end-to-end delay requirements. Real-time communication should be provided by an effective routing protocol that may reduce delays on end-to-end communications. Large-scale applications often used multi-hop routing to reduce the transmission power and avoid...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) constitute a very dynamic research area. The constraints related to deployment, topology, and energy motivates much of the research activities related to the WSNs. In a network of thousands of sensor nodes, routing management and data exchange are expensive in terms of energy consumption and storage capacity. In fact, a sensor needs to store a lot of information to...
One of the critical issues in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is the design of a proper routing protocol. While the requirement of low latency and low-energy consumption is getting more and more importance in emerging applications, the WSN should be capable of fulfilling its mission in a timely manner and without loss of energy. In this paper, we focus on multi-hop flat routing. A mathematical model...
