In this paper, we propose an efficient counter-based broadcast scheme for high reachability and energy efficiency. To achieve this, we propose a method to calculate additional coverage when a node receives the same broadcast message from both nodes, in order to rebroadcast by a node who can cover an large area. We also propose a formula to determine random access delay (RAD) considering addition coverage, distance, density, and remaining battery information, and a formula to determine count threshold ($C_{th}$) considering density and remaining battery information. In addition, we evaluate the performance of the proposed broadcast scheme compared with the existing counter-based broadcast schemes through simulation.

In this paper, we present a data dissemination protocol that guarantees energy-efficient data transmission and maximizes network lifetime. SPMS that outperforms the well-known protocol SPIN uses the shortest path to minimize the energy consumption. However, since it repeatedly uses the same path, maximizing the network lifetime is impossible. In this paper, we propose a protocol for data dissemination called the protocol Considering Between Energy and Distance (ConBED). It solves the network lifetime problem using the residual energy and the distance between nodes to determine a path for data dissemination. The simulation results show that ConBED guarantees energy-efficient transmission and increases the network lifetime by approximately 69% than that of SPMS.

Many routing protocols have been proposed for sensor networks where energy awareness and reliability are essential design issues. This paper proposes an Energy-aware Tree Routing Protocol (ETRP) for Wireless Sensor Networks. The proposed scheme relates to reliable and energy efficient data routing by selecting a data transmission path in consideration of residual energy at each node to disperse energy consumption across the networks and reliably transmit the data through a detour path when there is link or node failure. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperformed traditional Tree Routing (TR) by 23.5% in network lifetime.

무선센서네트워크에서 사용되는 혼잡제어 방식은 일반적인 네트워크 방식과는 다르게 고려해야할 사항이 있다. 문제 해결에 사용할수 있는 자원이 한정적이며, 중앙에서 혼잡 제어를 할 경우 지나친 통신 부하가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 집단지성(Swarm Intelligence)의 일종인 새 떼의 행동양식을 무선센서네트워크에 적용한 혼잡제어 기법을 살펴보고, 기존 기법에서 발생하는 에너지 소비 불균형을 해결하기 위한 기법에 대해 기술한다. 본 논문을 통해 무선센서네트워크에 새 떼의 간단한 행동양식을 적용함으로써 강인하고 확장 가능하며 자가 적응이 가능한 혼잡제어가 가능함을 확인하고, 집단지성이 우리가 직면하고 있는 다양한 연구 과제의 해결 도구가 될 수 있는 가능성을 보인다.

Aside from the issues like energy saving and maximizing network lifetime. WMSN has another issue to deal with: support of quality of service(QoS) which is required especially for handling real-time data such as object tracking and data gathering. This paper proposes a multipath routing algorithm considering the distance to sink node, energy level and link quality of neighbour nodes. Proposed algorithm supports multipath routing path with high quality links. Hence it helps to reduce a power consumption concentration that happens in particular set of nodes along the frequently selected route. It also specifies a service quality pattern and a service quality level depending on traffic pattern. By doing this, the proposed algorithm can realize a differentiated service with QoS guaranteed data transmission.

Thanks to the development of microelectromechanical systems(MEMS), wireless communication technology and microsensor technology, it was Possible to manufacture a very small and low costdata acquisition node with sensing function, processing function, wireless communication function and battery. Thus sensor networks begin to be prevailed. The sensor network is a spontaneous system which sets up automatically routing paths and transmits asignificant data to the destination. Sensor nodes requires low-power operation because most of them use a battery as operating power. Sensor nodes transmit a sensing data to the destination. Moreover, they play a router. In fact, because the later consumes more energy than the former, the low-power routing is very important. Sensor networks don't have a routing standard unlike general wireless Ad-hoc networks. So This paper proposes a low-power routing method for anting to sensor networks. It is based on AODV and adapts a method to drop probably RREQ depending on remaining power. We examined it through simulations. From simulation results, we could confirm to reduce power consumption about $10-20\%$ and distribute equally power consumption among nodes.

Harvesting energy from the environment is essential for many applications to slow down the deterioration of energy in sensor networks. Energy from the environment is an inexhaustible supply which, if properly managed and harvested from the sources, can allow the system to last for a longer period. Many simulators simulate whole sensor networks where the nodes rely on energy harvesting for their source of power. It is important to be able to assume and simulate a node that can harvest energy from different sources of ambient energy. It is also essential to be able to keep track of the energy levels of the node and adjust node activities based on its energy status. This study aims to develop a prototype for a single node simulator that will show the effects of harvesting from different sources of energy. The results of this study can later be extended for more complicated simulations.

In this paper, we propose an energy-aware source routing protocol for maximizing a network lifetime in mobile ad hoc network environments. The proposed routing protocol is based on the source routing and chooses a path that maximize the path lifetime, by considering both transmit/receive power consumption and residual battery power in the mobile nodes from the perspective of source-destination end-to-end. This paper proposes a new routing cost and designs a new routing protocol for minimizing the control packet overhead occurred during the route discovery. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme has similar performances to the conventional routing schemes in terms of the number of transmission hops, transmission rate and total energy consumption, but achieves the performance improvement of 20 percent with respect to the lifetime.

In Mobile Ad-hoc Network(MANET), mobile nodes are operated by limited batteries. Therefore, it is very important to consume the battery power efficiently to prevent termination of the network. In this paper, we propose Energy-aware Dynamic Source Routing(EDSR) which is based on the Dynamic Source Routing(DSR) to increase the packet transmission and lifetime of the network. If the battery power of a node reaches threshold level, then the node gives up the function of relaying to save battery power except as a source and a destination node. While the conventional DSR doesn't consider the battery consumptions of the nodes, EDSR blocks the nodes from relaying whose battery powers are below the threshold level. Simulation results show the proposed EDSR is more efficient in packet transmission and network lifetime through the balanced battery consumption of the mobile nodes.

The shortest path is only maintained during short time because network topology changes very frequently and each mobile nodes communicate each other by depending on battery in MANET(Mobile Ad-hoc Network). So many researches that are to overcome a limitation or consider a power have executed actively by many researcher. But these protocols are considered only one side of link stability or power consumption so we can make high of stability but power consumption isn't efficient. And also we can reduce power consumption of network but the protocol can't make power consumption of balancing. For that reason we suggest RBSSPR(Residual Battery Capacity and Signal Strength Based Power-aware Routing Protocol in MANET). The RBSSPR considers residual capacity of battery and signal strength so it keeps not only a load balancing but also minimizing of power consumption. The RBSSPR is based on AODV(Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing). We use ns-2 for simulation. This simulation result shows that RBSSPR can extense lifetime of network through distribution of traffic that is centralized into special node and reducing of power consumption.
