Security and energy are two most aspect in WSN. The privacy is also significant features in wireless sensor network (WSN). We have many security routing protocols in wireless sensor network. But the main goal is to provide security with less energy consumption. This paper we are going to demonstrate energy efficiency and security scheme in contradiction of power draining occurrence especially renunciation...
Wireless sensor-actuator networks are gaining ground as the communication infrastructure for process monitoring and control. Industrial applications demand a high degree of reliability and real-time guarantees in communication. Because wireless communication is susceptible to transmission failures in industrial environments, industrial wireless standards such as WirelessHART adopt reliable graph routing...
Privacy, in particular anonymity, is required to increase the acceptance of users for the Internet of Things (IoT). The IoT is built upon sensors that encompass us in each step we take. Hence, they can collect sensitive, privacy-invading data that can be used to establish complete user profiles. For this reason, sensing in the IoT needs to provide means of privacy-protection. In this paper, we discuss...
In this paper, we propose a spectrum map aided routing protocol for a distributed cognitive radio network. We assume the presence of dedicated sensors that capture the spatio-temporal spectrum usage statistics to create the radio environment map. We exploit the map to find not only the best hops along a route but also the best available channel in terms of the expected performance. Through the use...
This paper presents a network router and transceiver for wearable, low-power, high-speed Body Area Networks (BAN) applications running in a mesh network of sensors embedded in textiles and connected to each other with conductive yarns functioning as bidirectional transmission channels. The routing of data packets from sensor nodes to a sink node is based on hybrid circuit and packet switching. In...
In this paper, we consider the use of an electric-supplied coordinator exploiting much higher transmission power than battery-supplied nodes in low power and lossy networks (LLNs). Since the coordinator can transmit via one hop instead of multiple hops over downlink, it is possible to reduce the communication overhead significantly. To take this advantage, we propose a single hop downlink protocol...
In recent years, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have become valuable assets to both the commercial and military communities with applications ranging from industrial control on a factory floor to reconnaissance of a hostile border. In both applications, the sensors act as data sources and forward information to a central sink or base station (BS). The unique role of the BS makes it a natural target...
In this paper, an underwater wireless sensor network (UWSN) is modeled with the help of queueing theory in order to evaluate the maximum stable throughput of the network. To this end, a new scenario for multi-layer mobile UWSN is considered. Then, a new MAC algorithm comprised of random access scheme (like MACAW) and CDMA-based data transmission along with a simplified routing algorithm is proposed...
The medium access control being the main source of energy wastage in wireless sensor networks, energy-efficiency is always kept in mind while designing the communication stack. Especially, versatile preamble-sampling MAC protocols emerged to offer a suitable solution over multiple deployment characteristics. For instance, some works have targeted burst transmissions while others have focused on long-term...
Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are characterized by frequent network partitioning. This causes network connectivity to be opportunistic. In recent years, many collaborative applications have been envisioned for DTNs. These applications rely on the availability of reliable group communication protocols. To address this challenge in DTNs, we propose a scalable multicasting scheme that deterministically...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of small nodes with sensing, computation, and wireless communication capabilities. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a promising data mining solution for precision agriculture. Instrumented with wireless sensors, it will become available to monitor the plants for real time, such as air temperature, soil water content, and nutrition stress. This real time information...
Energy efficient multicast routing is one of the fundamental problems in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Previous work has shown that when the goal is to find multicast trees with minimum transmission cost, the problem becomes NP-complete. In this work, we present a heuristic distributed minimum transmission multicast routing protocol (MTMRP) for WSNs. By introducing the biased backoff scheme and...
In Wireless Sensor Networks, nodes collaborate to perform a single task or a set of related tasks. Data generated by sensors is very often correlated. Data/decision fusion has been proposed to avoid redundant data occupying network bandwidth and consuming energy. In military setting, this suppression is required also to defeat cryptanalysis efforts by adversaries. However, in most existing routing...
Most of the proposed communication protocols for wireless sensor networks focus on the energy efficiency. However, it often brings poor latency performance. In this paper, we develop a novel cross-layer designed asynchronous protocol EEFF (Energy Efficient and Fast Forwarding) for wireless sensor networks regarding low latency and energy efficiency. EEFF improves low power listening approach and introduces...
Interference in the mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) influences performances of the networks badly. In this paper, we propound a new interference-aware probability forwarding (IPF) mechanism to reduce interference. Firstly, IPF is to adjust the carrier sensing threshold, resulting in a higher level of spatial reuse. Secondly, IPF distributes a probability to every node. The probability is related with...
This paper presents a distributed fermat-point range estimation strategy, which is important in the moving sensor localization applications. The fermat-point is defined as a point which minimizes the sum of distances from three sensors inside a triangle. This point is indeed at the trianglepsilas center of gravity. We solve the problems of large errors and poor performance in the bounding box algorithm...
