To resist the relay attacks in RFID system, it is commonly used RFID distance bounding protocols using the round trip time measurement for 1 bit challenge and response between a reader and a tag. If the success probability of relay attacks for the 1 bit challenge and response can be reduced in these protocols, it is possible to make an efficient distance bounding protocol. In this paper, we propose an efficient RFID distance bounding protocol based on 2 bit challenge and response which is modified the RFID distance bounding protocol proposed by Hancke and Khun based on 1 bit challenge and response. The success probability of relay attack for the proposed protocol is (7/16)n for the n times of challenge and response, which is much lower than (3/4)n given by Hancke and Khun's protocol.

In a wireless network environment, since sensors are not always connected to power, the life of a battery, which is an energy source supplied to sensors, is limited. Therefore, various studies have been conducted to extend the network life, and a layer-based routing protocol, LEACH(: Low-energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy), has emerged for efficient energy use. However, the LEACH protocol, which transmits fused data directly to the sink node, has a limitation in that it consumes as much energy as the square of the transmission distance when transmitting data. To improve these limitations, this paper proposes an algorithm that can minimize the transmission distance with multi-hop transmission where cluster heads are chained between cluster heads through relative distance calculation from sink nodes in every round.

무선 센서 네트워크를 구성하는 각 센서 노드들은 한정된 전력의 배터리로 동작하므로, 센서 네트워크에서의 에너지 효율성은 중요한 이슈이다. 따라서, 센서 노드의 에너지 소모를 줄여서 전체 네트워크 수명을 최대화하기 위해 MAC 계층에서의 다양한 프로토콜이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 센서 네트워크의 에너지 효율성을 향상시키기 위한 에너지 효율적인 CA-MAC(Context Adaptive MAC) 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안된 CA-MAC 프로토콜은 데이터의 전송 여부를 결정하는 각 버퍼 임계값을 싱크와 노드의 거리에 따라 차등적으로 설정함으로써 노드의 에너지 소비를 감소시켜 전체 네트워크의 에너지 효율성을 크게 향상 시킨다. 또한, 전송 지연 시간을 감소시키기 위하여 센싱된 데이터의 긴급 여부에 따른 전송을 수행한다. 본 논문의 성능 평가는 OMNeT++을 이용한 모의실험을 통해 진행하였으며, 그 결과 기존에 제안되었던 S-MAC 및 T-MAC 프로토콜과 비교하여 제안된 기법이 데이터 전송 시간과 에너지 효율성을 향상시키고 네트워크 수명을 연장하였음을 확인하였다.

In Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) a sensor node transfers sensing data to the base-node through multi-hop because of the limited transmission range. Also because of the limited energy of the sensor node, the sensor nodes are required to consume their energy evenly to prolong the lifetime of the network. LMPR is a routing protocol for WSN, LMPR configures the network autonomously based on level which is the depth from the base-node, and distributes the transmission and computation load of the network to each sensor node. This paper implements LMPR on TinyOS and experiments on the performance of LMPR in WSN. As the result, the average of the received rate of LMPR is 91.39% and LMPR distributes the load of the transmission and computation about 4.6 times compare to the shortest cost routing protocol. We expect LMPR evenly distributes the transmission and computation load of the network to each node, and the lifetime of the network will be longer than it used to be.

A crucial issue in deploying wireless sensor networks is to perform a sensing task in an area of interest in an energy-efficient manner since sensor nodes have limited energy Power. The most practical solution to solve this problem is to use a node wake-up scheduling protocol that some sensor nodes stay active to provide sensing service, while the others are inactive for conserving their energy In this paper, we present a simple wake-up scheduling protocol, which can maintain sensing coverage required by applications and yet increase network lifetime by turning off some redundant nodes. In order to do this, we use the concept of a weighted average distance. A node decides whether it is active or inactive based on the weighted average distance. The proposed protocol allows sensor nodes to sleep dynamically while satisfying the required sensing coverage.

Several protocols which are based on tree topology to guarantee the important metrics such as energy efficiency in sensor networks have been proposed. However, studies on the effect of topologies in sensor networks, where base node has a high mobility, are very few. In this paper, we propose a minimum Wiener index tree as a suitable topology to the wireless sensor networks with high mobile base node. The minimum Wiener index spanning tree problem which aims to find a tree with minimum Wiener index from a given weighted graph was proved to be NP-hard. We designed a branch and bound algorithm for this problem. To evaluate the performance of proposed tree, the comparisons with minimum spanning tree in terms of transmission distance, energy consumption during one round, and network lifetime was performed by simulations. Our proposed tree outperformed in transmission distance and energy efficiency but underperformed in lifetime.

In this paper we propose an improved energy aware greedy perimeter stateless routing protocol (EAGPSR) for wireless ad hoc network. The existing greedy perimeter stateless routine (GPSR) has some problems with overloaded node and void situation. The improved EAGPSR protocol is proposed to remedy these problems. It also gives the solution for the fundamental problem in geographical routine called void communication. It considers two parameters (Residual Energy of battery and distance to the destination) for the next hop selection. In order to use efficiently limited-energy of node in wireless ad hoc network, network lifetime is focused. To evaluate the performance of our protocol we simulated EAGPSR in ns-2. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol achieves longer network lifetime compared with greedy perimeter stateless routing (GPSR) and the existing Energy aware greedy perimeter stateless routing protocol (EAGPSR).

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) consisting of a large number of sensors aim to gather data in a variety of environments and are being used and applied to many different fields. The sensor nodes composing a sensor network operate on battery of limited power and as a result, high energy efficiency and long network lifetime are major goals of research in the WSN. In this paper we propose a novel tree-based clustering approach for energy efficient wireless sensor networks. The proposed scheme forms the cluster and the nodes in a cluster construct a tree with the root of the cluster-head., The height of the tree is the distance of the member nodes to the cluster-head. Computer simulation shows that the proposed scheme enhances energy efficiency and balances the energy consumption among the nodes, and thus significantly extends the network lifetime compared to the existing schemes such as LEACH, PEGASIS, and TREEPSI.

In recent years, the needs for WLANs(Wireless Local Area Networks) technology which can access to Internet anywhere have been dramatically increased particularly in SOHO(Small Office Home Office) and Hot Spot. However, unlike wired networks, there are some unique characteristics of wireless networks. These characteristics include the burst packet losses due to unreliable wireless channel. Note that burst packet losses, which occur when the distance between the wireless station and the AP(Access Point) increase or when obstacles move temporarily between the station and AP, are very frequent in 802.11 networks. Conversely, due to burst packet losses, the performance of 802.11 networks are not always as sufficient as the current application require, particularly when they use TCP at the transport layer. The high packet loss rate over wireless links can trigger unnecessary execution of TCP congestion control algorithm, resulting in performance degradation. In order to overcome the limitations of WLANs environment, MAC-layer LDA(Loss Differentiation Algorithm)has been proposed. MAC-layer LDA prevents TCP's timeout by increasing CRD(Consecutive Retry Duration) higher than burst packet loss duration. However, in the wireless channel with high packet loss rate, MAC-layer LDA does not work well because of two reason: (a) If the CRD is lower than burst packet loss duration due to the limited increase of retry limit, end-to-end performance is degraded. (b) energy of mobile device and bandwidth utilization in the wireless link are wasted unnecessarily by Reducing the drainage speed of the network buffer due to the increase of CRD. In this paper, we propose a new retransmission module based on Cross-layer approach, called BLD(Burst Loss Detection) module, to solve the limitation of previous link layer retransmission schemes. BLD module's algorithm is retransmission mechanism at IEEE 802.11 networks and performs retransmission based on the interaction between retransmission mechanisms of the MAC layer and TCP. From the simulation by using ns-2(Network Simulator), we could see more improved TCP throughput and energy efficiency with the proposed scheme than previous mechanisms.
