The purpose of this paper is to represent a wind powered wireless sensor network system and introduce a novel transmission power control scheme based on remaining energy level and energy harvesting status to extend the lifetime of WSNs. Energy constraint has always been one of the most significant problems of wireless sensor networks along with the development. Many methods have been introduced to...
Energy saving is the one of the most critical issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) due to limited battery power of sensor nodes. In this paper, we propose a channel-aware type-based multiple access (TBMA) scheme for longer lifetime of WSNs. In an effort to minimize data transmission which is the most energy consuming operation in a sensor device, the proposed scheme allows a subset of sensors...
Sensor nodes in Cognitive Sensor Networks (CSNs) can work on different frequency bands (or channels) according to dynamically available wireless resources. This paper proposes a spectrum-aware routing scheme for CSNs, which jointly considers traffic balance, route configuration and power control for reliable end-to-end communications. Bayesian learning method is used to estimate the number of neighboring...
Power management is becoming very important in data centers. Cloud computing is also one of the newer promising techniques, that are appealing to many big companies. To apply power management in cloud computing has been proposed and considered as green computing. Cloud computing, due to its dynamic structure and property in online services, differs from current data centers in terms of power management...
The provisioning of energy-efficient, reliable and low-delay communication in Underwater Sensor Networks (USNs) is a challenging research issue due to the use of acoustic channels. However, the existing mechanisms for enhancement of energy utilization and Quality-of-Service (QoS) in USNs have not considered noise attenuation in deep water which can deteriorate energy efficiency and QoS seriously....
Ultra wideband (UWB) technology is well suited for communication in wireless sensor networks, in which low power consumption for data transmission and the availability of precise ranging information are highly desirable. In this paper, we consider the application of UWB in an event-detection sensor network, and we are interested in maximizing the network operational lifetime while satisfying requirements...
In this paper, we propose the optimal resource allocation strategies for energy constrained coded cooperative networks. By combining power control and multi-relays selection with LOC adjustment, our schemes aim at providing higher QoS and extending network lifetime. We consider the TDMA based scenario where one node acts as the source and the other nodes can be selected as relay nodes in a time slot...
LEACH exhausts a few nodes much earlier than others, which remarkably decreases the lifetime of whole network. An improved method based on time slots to prolong the minimum lifetime of nodes in LEACH is presented, in which a cluster-head selecting approach decreases the difference in cluster size of LEACH and responsibility mechanism for active node makes the energy consumption uniform in cluster...
