文摘In recent years,there has been a rapid growth in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks(UWSNs).The focus of research in this area is now on solving the problems associated with large-scale UWSN.One of the major issues in such a network is the localization of underwater nodes.Localization is required for tracking objects and detecting the target.It is also considered tagging of data where sensed contents are not found of any use without localization.This is useless for application until the position of sensed content is confirmed.This article’s major goal is to review and analyze underwater node localization to solve the localization issues in UWSN.The present paper describes various existing localization schemes and broadly categorizes these schemes as Centralized and Distributed localization schemes underwater.Also,a detailed subdivision of these localization schemes is given.Further,these localization schemes are compared from different perspectives.The detailed analysis of these schemes in terms of certain performance metrics has been discussed in this paper.At the end,the paper addresses several future directions for potential research in improving localization problems of UWSN.

文摘Nowadays,the widespread application of 5G has promoted rapid development in different areas,particularly in the Internet of Things(IoT),where 5G provides the advantages of higher data transfer rate,lower latency,and widespread connections.Wireless sensor networks(WSNs),which comprise various sensors,are crucial components of IoT.The main functions of WSN include providing users with real-time monitoring information,deploying regional information collection,and synchronizing with the Internet.Security in WSNs is becoming increasingly essential because of the across-the-board nature of wireless technology in many fields.Recently,Yu et al.proposed a user authentication protocol forWSN.However,their design is vulnerable to sensor capture and temporary information disclosure attacks.Thus,in this study,an improved protocol called PSAP-WSNis proposed.The security of PSAP-WSN is demonstrated by employing the ROR model,BAN logic,and ProVerif tool for the analysis.The experimental evaluation shows that our design is more efficient and suitable forWSN environments.
文摘Irrigation plays a significant role in various agricultural cropping methods deployed in semiarid and arid regions where valuable water applications and managing are considered crucial concerns.Multiple factors such as weather,soil,water,and crop data need to be considered for irrigation maintenance in an efficient besides uniform manner from multifaceted and different information-based systems.A Multi-Agent System(MAS)has been proposed recently based on diverse agent subsystems with definite objectives for attaining global MAS objective and is deployed on Cloud Computing paradigm capable of gathering information from Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs)positioned in rice,cotton,cassava crops for knowledge discovery and decision making.The radial basis function network has been used for irrigation prediction.However,in recent work,the security of data has not focused on where intruder involvement might corrupt the data at the time of data transferring to the cloud,which would affect the accuracy of decision making.To handle the above mentioned issues,an efficient method for irrigation prediction is used in this work.The factors considered for decision making are soil moisture,temperature,plant height,root depth.The above-mentioned data will be gathered from the sensors that are attached to the cropfield.Sensed data will be forwarded to the local server,where data encryption will be performed using Adaptive Elliptic Curve Cryptography(AECC).After the encryption process,the data will be forwarded to the cloud.Then the data stored in the cloud will be decrypted key before being given to the deci-sion-making module.Finally,the uniform distribution-based fuzzy neural network is formulated based on the received data information in the decisionmaking module.Thefinal decision regarding the level of water required for cropfields would be taken.Based on this outcome,the water volve opening duration and the level of fertilizers required will be considered.Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model for the United States Geological Survey(USGS)database in terms of precision,accuracy,recall,and packet delivery ratio.

文摘Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN)play a vital role in several real-time applications ranging from military to civilian.Despite the benefits of WSN,energy efficiency becomes a major part of the challenging issue in WSN,which necessitate proper load balancing amongst the clusters and serves a wider monitoring region.The clustering technique for WSN has several benefits:lower delay,higher energy efficiency,and collision avoidance.But clustering protocol has several challenges.In a large-scale network,cluster-based protocols mainly adapt multi-hop routing to save energy,leading to hot spot problems.A hot spot problem becomes a problem where a cluster node nearer to the base station(BS)tends to drain the energy much quicker than other nodes because of the need to implement more transmission.This article introduces a Jumping Spider Optimization Based Unequal Clustering Protocol for Mitigating Hotspot Problems(JSOUCP-MHP)in WSN.The JSO algorithm is stimulated by the characteristics of spiders naturally and mathematically modelled the hunting mechanism such as search,persecution,and jumping skills to attack prey.The presented JSOUCPMHP technique mainly resolves the hot spot issue for maximizing the network lifespan.The JSOUCP-MHP technique elects a proper set of cluster heads(CHs)using average residual energy(RE)to attain this.In addition,the JSOUCP-MHP technique determines the cluster sizes based on two measures,i.e.,RE and distance to BS(DBS),showing the novelty of the work.The proposed JSOUCP-MHP technique is examined under several experiments to ensure its supremacy.The comparison study shows the significance of the JSOUCPMHP technique over other models.

文摘Recently,wireless sensor networks(WSNs)find their applicability in several real-time applications such as disaster management,military,surveillance,healthcare,etc.The utilization of WSNs in the disaster monitoring process has gained significant attention among research communities and governments.Real-time monitoring of disaster areas using WSN is a challenging process due to the energy-limited sensor nodes.Therefore,the clustering process can be utilized to improve the energy utilization of the nodes and thereby improve the overall functioning of the network.In this aspect,this study proposes a novel Lens-Oppositional Wild Goose Optimization based Energy Aware Clustering(LOWGO-EAC)scheme for WSN-assisted real-time disaster management.The major intention of the LOWGO-EAC scheme is to perform effective data collection and transmission processes in disaster regions.To achieve this,the LOWGOEAC technique derives a novel LOWGO algorithm by the integration of the lens oppositional-based learning(LOBL)concept with the traditional WGO algorithm to improve the convergence rate.In addition,the LOWGO-EAC technique derives a fitness function involving three input parameters like residual energy(RE),distance to the base station(BS)(DBS),and node degree(ND).The proposed LOWGO-EAC technique can accomplish improved energy efficiency and lifetime of WSNs in real-time disaster management scenarios.The experimental validation of the LOWGO-EAC model is carried out and the comparative study reported the enhanced performance of the LOWGO-EAC model over the recent approaches.
文摘Wireless sensor network(WSN)includes a set of self-organizing and homogenous nodes employed for data collection and tracking applications.It comprises a massive set of nodes with restricted energy and processing abilities.Energy dissipation is a major concern involved in the design of WSN.Clustering and routing protocols are considered effective ways to reduce the quantity of energy dissipation using metaheuristic algorithms.In order to design an energy aware cluster-based route planning scheme,this study introduces a novel Honey Badger Based Clustering with African Vulture Optimization based Routing(HBAC-AVOR)protocol for WSN.The presented HBAC-AVOR model mainly aims to cluster the nodes in WSN effectually and organize the routes in an energy-efficient way.The presented HBAC-AVOR model follows a two stage process.At the initial stage,the HBAC technique is exploited to choose an opti-mal set of cluster heads(CHs)utilizing afitness function involving many input parameters.Next,the AVOR approach was executed for determining the optimal routes to BS and thereby lengthens the lifetime of WSN.A detailed simulation analysis was executed to highlight the increased outcomes of the HBAC-AVOR protocol.On comparing with existing techniques,the HBAC-AVOR model has outperformed existing techniques with maximum lifetime.
文摘The Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN)are vulnerable to assaults due to the fact that the devices connected to them have a reliable connection to the inter-net.A malicious node acts as the controller and uses a grey hole attack to get the data from all of the other nodes in the network.Additionally,the nodes are dis-carding and modifying the data packets according to the requirements of the sys-tem.The assault modifies the fundamental concept of the WSNs,which is that different devices should communicate with one another.In the proposed system,there is a fuzzy idea offered for the purpose of preventing the grey hole attack from making effective communication among the WSN devices.The currently available model is unable to recognise the myriad of different kinds of attacks.The fuzzy engine identified suspicious actions by utilising the rules that were gen-erated to make a prediction about the malicious node that would halt the process.Experiments conducted using simulation are used to determine delay,accuracy,energy consumption,throughput,and the ratio of packets successfully delivered.It stands in contrast to the model that was suggested,as well as the methodologies that are currently being used,and analogue behavioural modelling.In comparison to the existing method,the proposed model achieves an accuracy rate of 45 per-cent,a packet delivery ratio of 79 percent,and a reduction in energy usage of around 35.6 percent.These results from the simulation demonstrate that the fuzzy grey detection technique that was presented has the potential to increase the net-work’s capability of detecting grey hole assaults.
文摘In the contemporary era of unprecedented innovations such as Internet of Things(IoT),modern applications cannot be imagined without the presence of Wireless Sensor Network(WSN).Nodes in WSN use neighbour discovery(ND)protocols to have necessary communication among the nodes.Neighbour discovery process is crucial as it is to be done with energy efficiency and minimize discovery latency and maximize percentage of neighbours discovered.The current ND approaches that are indirect in nature are categorized into methods of removal of active slots from wake-up schedules and intelligent addition of new slots.The two methods are found to have certain drawbacks.Thefirst category disturbs original integrity of wake-up schedules leading to reduced chances of discovering new nodes in WSN as neighbours.When second category is followed,it may have inefficient slots in the wake-up schedules leading to performance degradation.Therefore,the motivation behind the work in this paper is that by combining the two categories,it is possible to reap benefits of both and get rid of the limitations of the both.Making a hybrid is achieved by introducing virtual nodes that help maximize performance by ensuring original integrity of wake-up schedules and adding of efficient active slots.Thus a Hybrid Approach to Neighbour Discovery(HAND)protocol is realized in WSN.The simulation study revealed that HAND outperforms the existing indirect ND models.
文摘In recent scenario of Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs),there are many application developed for handling sensitive and private data such as military information,surveillance data,tracking,etc.Hence,the sensor nodes of WSNs are distributed in an intimidating region,which is non-rigid to attacks.The recent research domains of WSN deal with models to handle the WSN communications against malicious attacks and threats.In traditional models,the solution has been made for defending the networks,only to specific attacks.However,in real-time applications,the kind of attack that is launched by the adversary is not known.Additionally,on developing a security mechanism for WSN,the resource constraints of sensor nodes are also to be considered.With that note,this paper presents an Enhanced Security Model with Improved Defensive Routing Mechanism(IDRM)for defending the sensor network from various attacks.Moreover,for efficient model design,the work includes the part of feature evaluation of some general attacks of WSNs.The IDRM also includes determination of optimal secure paths and Node security for secure routing operations.The performance of the proposed model is evaluated with respect to several factors;it is found that the model has achieved better security levels and is efficient than other existing models in WSN communications.It is proven that the proposed IDRM produces 74%of PDR in average and a minimized packet drop of 38%when comparing with the existing works.
文摘Throughout the use of the small battery-operated sensor nodes encou-rage us to develop an energy-efficient routing protocol for wireless sensor networks(WSNs).The development of an energy-efficient routing protocol is a mainly adopted technique to enhance the lifetime of WSN.Many routing protocols are available,but the issue is still alive.Clustering is one of the most important techniques in the existing routing protocols.In the clustering-based model,the important thing is the selection of the cluster heads.In this paper,we have proposed a scheme that uses the bubble sort algorithm for cluster head selection by considering the remaining energy and the distance of the nodes in each cluster.Initially,the bubble sort algorithm chose the two nodes with the maximum remaining energy in the cluster and chose a cluster head with a small distance.The proposed scheme performs hierarchal routing and direct routing with some energy thresholds.The simulation will be performed in MATLAB to justify its performance and results and compared with the ECHERP model to justify its performance.Moreover,the simulations will be performed in two scenarios,gate-way-based and without gateway to achieve more energy-efficient results.
