Network lifetime is of great importance in WBANs that significantly influences the network performance and user experience. Among all the solutions to extend the network lifetime, relay mechanism plays a crucial role. However, previous works only concentrate on energy efficiency of sensor nodes regardless of energy storage diversity among sensor nodes, which may severely limit the performance of enhancing...
In this paper, a new scheme to reduce the positioning error is investigated for wireless sensor networks (WSN). To be specific, conventional Distance Vector-Hop (Dv-Hop) algorithm fail to calculate the average distance per-hop with high precision that caused by the random distribution of the irregular network topology, greatly leading to the positioning error in the Dv-Hop algorithm. To enhance the...
Energy balance is a critical issue in wireless sensor networks. Several mixed data transmission (MDT) schemes have been proposed to achieve energy balance. However, most existing works are lack of theoretical study, especially understanding the relationship between network-wide energy balancing and lifetime optimization. In this paper, we conduct comprehensive theoretical analysis to the two-level...
