본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 센서 노드의 에너지 소모를 줄이고 네트워크의 수명을 최대화하기 위해 Tiered-MAC을 제안한다. Tiered-MAC은 싱크노드와 센서노드 로 구성되는 계층적 센서 네트워크 구조에서 싱크노드의 최대 전송 영역은 스케줄 기반의 TDMA를 사용하고, 이외의 영역은 경쟁 기반의 CSMA를 사용함으로써 많은 데이터 트래픽이 집중하여 혼잡상황이 잦은 싱크노드 주변의 송수산을 관리하여 불필요한 에너지 소비를 줄이도록 설계되었다. 스케줄 기반으로 동작할 때 공간사용을 최대 화 하여 전송률을 높이고 전송지연을 줄이는 슬롯할당 기법을 제안하였다. 또한 ns-2 시뮬레이터를 이용 한 실험을 통하여 제안한 기법의 성능을 CSMA와 TDMA를 비교하였고, 실험 결과를 통해 제안하는 기법이 에너지 효율적으로 동작하는 것을 확인하였다.

Reduction of power consumption has been a major issue and an interesting challenge to maximize the lifetime of wireless sensor networks. We investigate the practical meaning of N-policy in queues as a power saving technique in a WSN. We consider the N-policy of a finite M/M/1 queue. We formulate the optimization problem of power consumption considering the packet loss probability. We analyze the trade-off between power consumption and the packet loss probability and demonstrate the operational characteristics of N-policy as a power saving technique in a WSN with various numerical examples.

In this paper, we propose a new routing scheme based on the multiple layer routing strategy. This algorithm can guarantee the required QoS while maximizing energy efficiency in wireless sensor networks. The principle contributions of this work are its simplicity, scalability and responsiveness to current network situations. Simulation results indicate the superior performance of our proposed algorithm, while other existing scheme cannot offer such an attractive performance balance.

최근 몇 년간 소량의 데이터를 송수신하는 Massive IoT 네트워크에 많은 관심을 가지고 있다. 이러한 환경을 구축하기 위해서 저전력 광역 네트워크(LPWAN) 기술 중 LoRa(Long Range) 네트워크를 사용하고 있다. 대부분의 IoT 응용 서비스는 디바이스가 장시간 안정적으로 작동해야 하므로 에너지 효율성을 중점으로 두고 LoRa 디바이스의 수명을 최대화하기 위한 디바이스의 여러 동작들을 설계하는 에너지 소비 모델링이 중요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 LoRa Class B 통신 방식의 에너지 소비 모델을 정의하고 성능을 평가한다.

What are important in wireless sensor networks are reliable data transmission, energy efficiency of each node, and the maximization of network life through the distribution of load among the nodes. The present study proposed DSPR, a dynamic unique path routing machanism that considered these requirements in wireless sensor networks. In DSPR, data is transmitted through a dynamic unique path, which has the least cost calculated with the number of hops from each node to the sink, and the average remaining energy. At that time, each node monitors its transmission process and if a node detects route damage it changes the route dynamically, referring to the cost table, and by doing so, it enhances the reliability of the network and distributes energy consumption evenly among the nodes. In addition, when the network topology is changed, only the part related to the change is restructured dynamically instead of restructuring the entire network, and the life of the network is extended by inhibiting unnecessary energy consumption in each node as much as possible. In the results of our experiment, the proposed DSPR increased network life by minimizing energy consumption of the nodes and improved the reliability and energy efficiency of the network.

In this paper, we propose an routing algorithm for ultra low power and high reliable transmission in WBAN environment. This algorithm is to minimize energy consumption and to maximize the life and reliability for medical devices. Also, this algorithm is not only medical devices but also non-medical devices is to minimize energy consumption and to maximize the life of device. The combination of the distance from the previous node and residual energy calculates weight. The calculated weight is used to calculate the weight of full path by cumulative weights. The full path to the smallest of the weights are set to the path. Also this algorithm is able to select another path to avoid the error path by determining the link status between nodes, when occurs link error and congestion. In this paper, we show that WSN routing algorithm based on shortest hop count routing algorithm and EAR routing algorithm compared to ensure high reliability and low power characteristic of WBAN to be verified through simulations.

This study proposes a practical and realistic method to establish an optimal lifetime maintenance strategy for deteriorating bridges by considering the life-cycle performance as well as the life-cycle cost. The proposed method offers a set of optimal tradeoff maintenance scenarios among other conflicting objectives, such as minimizing cost and maximizing performance. A genetic algorithm is used to generate a set of maintenance scenarios that is a multi-objective combinatorial optimization problem related to the and the life-cycle cost and performance as separate objective functions. A computer program, which generates optimal maintenance scenarios, was developed based on the proposed method. The subordinate relation between bridge members has been considered to decide optimal maintenance sequence. The developed program has been used to present a procedure for finding an optimal maintenance scenario for steel-girder bridges on the Korean National Road. Through this bridge maintenance scenario analysis, it is expected that the developed method and program can be effectively used to allow bridge managers an optimal maintenance strategy satisfying various constraints and requirements.

In this paper, we intend to improve the network lifetime by improving the energy efficiency of sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network by utilizing machine learning using K-means clustering algorithm. A wireless sensor network is a wireless network composed of physical devices including batteries as physical sensors. Due to the characteristics of sensor nodes, all resources must be efficiently used to minimize energy consumption to maximize network lifetime. A cluster based approach is used to manage groups of relatively large numbers of nodes. In the proposed protocol, by improving the existing LEACH algorithm, we propose a clustering algorithm that selects a cluster head using a cluster based approach and a location based approach. The performance results to be improved were measured using Matlab simulation. Through the experimental results, K-means clustering was applied to the energy efficiency part. By utilizing K-means, it is confirmed that energy efficiency is improved and the lifetime of the entire network is extended.
