Abstract
Wireless Sensor Networks are consisted of sensor nodes that communicated with each other to transmit information. Because sensor nodes have physically many limits, wireless sensor networks are hard to adopt for traditional networks. Transmissions are consumed most energy of sensor nodes. That's why energy-efficient transmission techniques and QoS support techniques for different kind of data are most important in wireless sensor networks. The thesis proposes the agent based framework for energy distribution and QoS in wireless sensor networks. Agents have its own behavior policy by means of a gene, which is optimized by genetic operations. Agents behavior to distribute energy consumption over sensor nodes. Simulation results show that the enhanced framework extends the lifetime of sensor nodes. Successful transmission ratios of emergency data and non emergency data are increased by 27% and 14%, respectively. Also, the results demonstrate that Qos of networks are improved.
