Clustering sensor nodes is an effective topology control for increasing network lifetime and scalability. It also, balances the load on the sensor nodes. HEED is a well known distributed clustering protocol that uses both energy and communication cost to elect Cluster Heads (CHs) in a probabilistic way. This paper improves HEED protocol using fuzzy logic and a non probabilistic approach for CH election...
Extensive research has been done on reliable data forwarding in sensor networks. Existing protocols provide reliability at the cost of high energy consumption. In this paper, we propose to develop an Adaptive Energy Efficient Forwarding Protocol (AEEFP) with the aim of keeping the energy consumption low while achieving high reliability. In our proposed protocol, the data forwarding probability is...
Various sensor types, e.g., temperature, humidity, and acoustic, sense physical phenomena in different ways, and thus, are expected to have different sensing models. Even for the same sensor type, the sensing model may need to be changed in different environments. Designing and testing a different coverage protocol for each sensing model is indeed a costly task. To address this challenging task, we...
