The node replica attack is known to be dangerous to wireless sensor networks (WSNs) because it enables the adversary to extend the damage throughout the network with very low cost. To stop such attack, we propose a similarity estimation based scheme with group deployment knowledge. Compared with prior works, our proposal provides extra functionality that prevent replica from generating false location...
The hierarchical routing protocols are considered as a suitable and energy efficient for wireless sensor networks applications that demand frequent and periodic data gathering. Many routing protocols for two-layer (single-hop), tree-layer (dual-hop) and multiple-layer (multi-hop) architectures are developed based on the hierarchical LEACH protocol. In this paper we propose a novel concept for the...
A marketplace for the sale of sensor data is analysed, where the data collected by a set of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are made available as a bundle to end customers through an intermediary bundling platform. The platform collects a flat fee from end customers and pays WSNs a price growing linearly with the sensing rate. The bundling platform sets both prices, while the other stakeholders act...
This paper proposes a fast forward medium access control protocol (FFMAC) for quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee in multihop IEEE 802.11s wireless mesh networks with multiple channels. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed protocol is the first one which considers the multihop and multichannel issues simultaneously. It provides higher priority for real-time applications, while remaining the distributed...
Huge interest and demand on information superhighway have pressed various telecommunications research fronts and lead to a new form of future Internet consisting of wired and wireless segments where resource-constrained devices such as palm pilots and sensors may become integral parts of the Internet rather than access-only platforms. One of the key design problems is the security in such heterogeneous...
Ultra-wideband (UWB) systems possess several distinct features such as very high data rate, large multipath or frequency diversity and improved ranging precision while requiring low-power low-complexity transceivers. Among the different modulation schemes, differential PSK is an attractive option because it does not require channel estimation, and hence reduces implementation complexity. This paper...
