The present era of wireless communication system has witnessed a maximized score of interest in adopting a specialized branch called as Wireless Sensor Network. Although, the research on the concept is more than a decade old, still WSN is shrouded by various types of operational loopholes, which decreases the technical adoption of the commercial practices of the protocols. The proposed paper has addressed...
Several applications in wireless sensor networks require a bidirectional communication between the sensing nodes and the sink. A number of relay nodes is used to achieve this bidirectional communication. The relay nodes adjust their communication range in order to consume less energy, constructing an asymmetric network with unidirectional links. In this paper, we examine the case where a bidirectional...
The directional sensor placement problem is an essential part of any planning model for directional wireless sensor networks. Its goal is to find an optimal subset of locations where directional sensors should be placed so that the total network cost is minimized while the requirements of coverage and connectivity are satisfied. Directional sensors are characterized by three important parameters:...
The unplanned and random deployment of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) may impose a high node density on a specific region. This concentration can be exploited by density control mechanisms to increase network lifetime, by deactivating temporarily redundant sensor nodes. Previous approaches for density control in WSN focus in guaranteeing full sensing coverage of monitoring area. This work presents...
