So, we have to concentrate more on balanced energy consumption for maximizing the network lifetime. Minimizing the whole network overhead and vigor disbursement coupled with the multi-hop data reclamation process that ensuring balanced energy consumption among SNs which results in prolonged network lifetime. This can be achieved by forwarding the sensed data to their cluster heads and then filtering the data before sending it to their tryst nodes, which is located in proximity to MS’s trajectory. Sleep and awakening of nodes periodically helps to retain their energy for some more time. The events occurring in any part of the network should be identified by the nodes, while arrangements sleep and active among the nodes. (i.e.) the nodes should be scheduled to sleep, so that the outstanding nodes can take care of the whole network. The eXtensible Randomized Matrix Arithmetic Coding (XRMAC) Technique has been used to enhance the security among all the nodes in the network. Simulation results show that our Proposed Scheme can have better Lifetime, improved throughput, reduced delay compared to other existing methods.展开更多

A transmission scheme for energy-constrained WSNs is proposed in this paper. The scheme, called MIHOP (MIMO and Multi-hop), combines cluster-based virtual MIMO and multi-hop technologies. The multihop mode is employed in transmitting data when the related sensors are located within a specific number of hops from the sink, and the virtual MIMO mode is used in transmitting data from the remaining sensor nodes. We compare the energy consumption of different transmission schemes and propose an algorithm for determining the optimal hop count in MIHOP. A controllable mobile sink that reduces the energy consumed in sensor transmission is also adopted for data collection. The theoretical analysis and the Monte Carlo simulation demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms individual virtual MIMO, multi-hop technologies, and double-string networks in terms of energy conservation. The energy consumption levels under the MIHOP scheme are approximately 12.98%, 47.55% and 48.30% less than that under virtual MIMO schemes, multi-hop networks and doublestring networks, respectively.展开更多

However, integrating a WSNwith the IoT is challenging and causes issues that require careful exploration.Prolonging the lifetime of a network through appropriately utilising energyconsumption is among the essential challenges due to the limited resourcesof SNs. Thus, recent research has examined mobile sinks (MSs), which havebeen introduced to improve the overall efficiency of WSNs. MSs bear theburden of data collection instead of consuming energy at the routeing bySNs. In a network, some areas generate more data through SNs that containfrequent, urgent messages. These messages carry sensitive data that must bedelivered immediately to user applications. Collecting such messages via MSs,especially on a large scale, increases delays, which are not tolerable in some realapplications. This issue has not been studied much. Thus, the present studyutilises the advantages of the priority parameter to concentrate on these areasand proposes a new model named ‘energy efficient path planning of MS-basedarea priority’ (EEPP-BAP). This method involves non-urgent and urgentmessages. It is comprised of four procedures. Initially, after SNs are distributedrandomly in a wide monitoring field, the monitoring field is partitionedinto equal zones according to priority, either differently or equally. Next isclustering based on the cluster head (CH) selected to perform the particleswarm optimisation algorithm (PSO). Then, the MS moves first to the zoneswith higher priority and less distance to perform the brain storm optimisationalgorithm. Finally, for urgent messages from the other zones at which theMS continues, the proposed approach establishes a routeing technique usingmulti-hop communication based on the MS position and using PSO. The proposed solution is aimed at delivering urgent messages to MSs free of latencyand with minimal packet loss. The simulation results proved that the EEPPBAP method can improve network performance compared with other modelsbased on different parameters that have been used to construct the controlledmovement of MSs in large-scale environments involving urgent messages. Theproposed method increased the average lifetime of SNs to 206.6% on average,reduced the average end-to-end delay to 7.1%, and increased the averagepacket delivery ratio to 36.9%.展开更多

The se...HashQuery,a Hash-area-based data dissemination protocol,was designed in wireless sensor networks. Using a Hash function which uses time as the key,both mobile sinks and sensors can determine the same Hash area. The sensors can send the information about the events that they monitor to the Hash area and the mobile sinks need only to query that area instead of flooding among the whole network,and thus much energy can be saved. In addition,the location of the Hash area changes over time so as to balance the energy consumption in the whole network. Theoretical analysis shows that the proposed protocol can be energy-efficient and simulation studies further show that when there are 5 sources and 5 sinks in the network,it can save at least 50% energy compared with the existing two-tier data dissemination(TTDD) protocol,especially in large-scale wireless sensor networks.展开更多

It is expected that WSNs will be integrated into the Internet of Things（IoT）and participate in various tasks. WSNs play an important role monitoring and reporting environment information and collecting surrounding context. In this paper we consider a WSN deployed for an application such as environment monitoring, and a mobile sink which acts as the gateway between the Internet and the WSN. Data gathering is a challenging problem in WSNs and in the IoT because the information has to be available quickly and effectively without delays and redundancies. In this paper we propose several distributed algorithms for composite event detection and reporting to a mobile sink. Once data is collected by the sink, it can be shared using the IoT infrastructure. We analyze the performance of our algorithms using WSNet simulator, which is specially designed for event-based WSNs. We measure various metrics such as average residual energy, percentage of composite events processed successfully at the sink, and the average number of hops to reach the sink.展开更多

The system consists of many static sensors, scattered in a large scale sensing field and multiple mobile sinks, cruising among the clusters. Conservation of energy and simplification of protocol are important design considerations in this scheme. The noninterference topology scheme largely simplifies the full-distributed communication protocol with the ability of collision avoidance and random routing. The total number of cluster heads in such a topology was analyzed, and then an approximate evaluation of the total energy consumption in one round was carded out. Simulation results show that CMMSM can save considerable energy and obtain higher throughput than low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy （LEACH） and geographical adaptive fidelity （GAF）.展开更多

文摘Energy conservation in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has always been a crucial issue and has received increased attention in the recent years. A transmission scheme for energy-constrained WSNs is proposed in this paper. The scheme, called MIHOP (MIMO and Multi-hop), combines cluster-based virtual MIMO and multi-hop technologies. The multihop mode is employed in transmitting data when the related sensors are located within a specific number of hops from the sink, and the virtual MIMO mode is used in transmitting data from the remaining sensor nodes. We compare the energy consumption of different transmission schemes and propose an algorithm for determining the optimal hop count in MIHOP. A controllable mobile sink that reduces the energy consumed in sensor transmission is also adopted for data collection. The theoretical analysis and the Monte Carlo simulation demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms individual virtual MIMO, multi-hop technologies, and double-string networks in terms of energy conservation. The energy consumption levels under the MIHOP scheme are approximately 12.98%, 47.55% and 48.30% less than that under virtual MIMO schemes, multi-hop networks and doublestring networks, respectively.

However, integrating a WSNwith the IoT is challenging and causes issues that require careful exploration.Prolonging the lifetime of a network through appropriately utilising energyconsumption is among the essential challenges due to the limited resourcesof SNs. Thus, recent research has examined mobile sinks (MSs), which havebeen introduced to improve the overall efficiency of WSNs.

The proposed solution is aimed at delivering urgent messages to MSs free of latencyand with minimal packet loss. The simulation results proved that the EEPPBAP method can improve network performance compared with other modelsbased on different parameters that have been used to construct the controlledmovement of MSs in large-scale environments involving urgent messages. Theproposed method increased the average lifetime of SNs to 206.6% on average,reduced the average end-to-end delay to 7.1%, and increased the averagepacket delivery ratio to 36.9%.

文摘We suggest event collection protocol in a specific region where sensors are deployed to detect and collect events.In the traditional multi-hop routing in wireless sensor networks reporting events to a sink node or base-station will cause imbalanced energy consumption of static sensors.To solve this problem,we use mobile sink.In this paper,we study the design of efficiency routing protocol for supporting efficient data collecting in mobile sink wireless sensor networks(mWSNs).We suggest the following two main ideas.First,we use reactive protocol to cut off unnecessary delay.Mobile sink makes a path to access to sensor node.Second,we model mobile sink movement depending on data frequency,so we can reduce moving distance efficiently.We simulate this protocol and compare it with the traditional method.Simulation results show this protocol reduces distance significantly and is suitable for mWSNs with heavy traffic.

文摘As a component of Wireless Sensor Network(WSN),Visual-WSN(VWSN)utilizes cameras to obtain relevant data including visual recordings and static images.Data from the camera is sent to energy efficient sink to extract key-information out of it.VWSN applications range from health care monitoring to military surveillance.In a network with VWSN,there are multiple challenges to move high volume data from a source location to a target and the key challenges include energy,memory and I/O resources.In this case,Mobile Sinks(MS)can be employed for data collection which not only collects information from particular chosen nodes called Cluster Head(CH),it also collects data from nearby nodes as well.The innovation of our work is to intelligently decide on a particular node as CH whose selection criteria would directly have an impact on QoS parameters of the system.However,making an appropriate choice during CH selection is a daunting task as the dynamic and mobile nature of MSs has to be taken into account.We propose Genetic Machine Learning based Fuzzy system for clustering which has the potential to simulate human cognitive behavior to observe,learn and understand things from manual perspective.Proposed architecture is designed based on Mamdani’s fuzzy model.Following parameters are derived based on the model residual energy,node centrality,distance between the sink and current position,node centrality,node density,node history,and mobility of sink as input variables for decision making in CH selection.The inputs received have a direct impact on the Fuzzy logic rules mechanism which in turn affects the accuracy of VWSN.The proposed work creates a mechanism to learn the fuzzy rules using Genetic Algorithm(GA)and to optimize the fuzzy rules base in order to eliminate irrelevant and repetitive rules.Genetic algorithmbased machine learning optimizes the interpretability aspect of fuzzy system.Simulation results are obtained using MATLAB.The result shows that the classification accuracy increase along with minimizing fuzzy rules count and thus it can be inferred that the suggested methodology has a better protracted lifetime in contrast with Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy(LEACH)and LEACHExpected Residual Energy(LEACH-ERE).

文摘Machine Learning concepts have raised executions in all knowledge domains,including the Internet of Thing(IoT)and several business domains.Quality of Service(QoS)has become an important problem in IoT surrounding since there is a vast explosion of connecting sensors,information and usage.Sen-sor data gathering is an efficient solution to collect information from spatially dis-seminated IoT nodes.Reinforcement Learning Mechanism to improve the QoS(RLMQ)and use a Mobile Sink(MS)to minimize the delay in the wireless IoT s proposed in this paper.Here,we use machine learning concepts like Rein-forcement Learning(RL)to improve the QoS and energy efficiency in the Wire-less Sensor Network(WSN).The MS collects the data from the Cluster Head(CH),and the RL incentive values select CH.The incentives value is computed by the QoS parameters such as minimum energy utilization,minimum bandwidth utilization,minimum hop count,and minimum time delay.The MS is used to col-lect the data from CH,thus minimizing the network delay.The sleep and awake scheduling is used for minimizing the CH dead in the WSN.This work is simu-lated,and the results show that the RLMQ scheme performs better than the base-line protocol.Results prove that RLMQ increased the residual energy,throughput and minimized the network delay in the WSN.

文摘HashQuery,a Hash-area-based data dissemination protocol,was designed in wireless sensor networks. Using a Hash function which uses time as the key,both mobile sinks and sensors can determine the same Hash area. The sensors can send the information about the events that they monitor to the Hash area and the mobile sinks need only to query that area instead of flooding among the whole network,and thus much energy can be saved. In addition,the location of the Hash area changes over time so as to balance the energy consumption in the whole network. Theoretical analysis shows that the proposed protocol can be energy-efficient and simulation studies further show that when there are 5 sources and 5 sinks in the network,it can save at least 50% energy compared with the existing two-tier data dissemination(TTDD) protocol,especially in large-scale wireless sensor networks.

文摘This paper presents a universal platform "uSensing" to support smartphones to communicate with sensor nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs).Since phones have different CPU processers and operating systems,it is a challenge to merge these heterogeneities and develop such a universal platform.In this paper,we design both hardware and software to support the "universal" feature of uSensing:1) "uSD" card:an IEEE 802.15.4 physical communication card with SD interface;2) "uSinkWare":a WSNs middleware running on smartphones.Integrated with uSD card and uSinkWare,phones become mobile data sinks to access into WSNs and parse messages from sensor nodes.We demonstrate the proposed uSensing platform in a commercial smartphone to connect with our WSNs testbed,and validate that the smartphone has the same WSNs functions as commercial fixed sink.Additionally,we evaluate the performance of uSensing platform through measuring phone's CPU load and power consumption,and analyze the performance of these metrics theoretically.The results suggest that the phone-based mobile sink has enough capability to serve as a mobile sink of WSNs and can work up to twenty hours due to low power consumption.
文摘Wireless Sensor Networks（WSNs） have many applications, such as climate monitoring systems, fire detection, smart homes, and smart cities. It is expected that WSNs will be integrated into the Internet of Things（IoT）and participate in various tasks. WSNs play an important role monitoring and reporting environment information and collecting surrounding context. In this paper we consider a WSN deployed for an application such as environment monitoring, and a mobile sink which acts as the gateway between the Internet and the WSN. Data gathering is a challenging problem in WSNs and in the IoT because the information has to be available quickly and effectively without delays and redundancies. In this paper we propose several distributed algorithms for composite event detection and reporting to a mobile sink. Once data is collected by the sink, it can be shared using the IoT infrastructure. We analyze the performance of our algorithms using WSNet simulator, which is specially designed for event-based WSNs. We measure various metrics such as average residual energy, percentage of composite events processed successfully at the sink, and the average number of hops to reach the sink.

文摘A novel topology scheme, cell with multiple mobile sinks method （CMMSM）, is proposed in this article for the collection of information and for the environment monitoring in wireless sensor networks. The system consists of many static sensors, scattered in a large scale sensing field and multiple mobile sinks, cruising among the clusters. Conservation of energy and simplification of protocol are important design considerations in this scheme. The noninterference topology scheme largely simplifies the full-distributed communication protocol with the ability of collision avoidance and random routing. The total number of cluster heads in such a topology was analyzed, and then an approximate evaluation of the total energy consumption in one round was carded out. Simulation results show that CMMSM can save considerable energy and obtain higher throughput than low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy （LEACH） and geographical adaptive fidelity （GAF）.
