This paper proposes a data gathering method by adapting the mobile sink to prolong the whole operation time of large WSNs. After partitioning a network into several clusters, a mobile sink visits each cluster and collects data from it. An efficient protocol improves the energy efficiency by delivering messages from the mobile sink to the cluster head as well as reduces the data gathering delay, which is the disadvantage of the mobile sink. For the scalability of sensor network, the network architecture should support the multihop transmission in the duster rather than the single hop transmission. The process for the data aggregation linked to the travelling path is proposed to improve the energy consumption of intermediate nodes. The experiment results show that the proposed model is more efficient than legacy methods in the energy consumption and the data gathering time.

Clustering protocol that is used in wireless sensor network is an efficient method that extends the lifetime of the network. However, when this method is applied to an environment in which collected data of the sensor node easily overlap, sensor nodes unnecessarily consumes energy. In the case of clustering technique that uses a threshold, the lifetime of the network is extended but the degree of accuracy of collected data is low. Therefore it is hard to trust the data and improvement is needed. In addition, it is hard for the clustering protocol that uses multi-hop transmission to normally collect data because the selection of a cluster head node occurs at random and therefore the link of nodes is often disconnected. Accordingly this paper suggested a cluster-formation algorithm that reduces unnecessary energy consumption and that works with an alleviated link disconnection. According to the result of performance analysis, the suggested method lets the nodes consume less energy than the existing clustering method and the transmission efficiency is increased and the entire lifetime is prolonged by about 30%.

In the mobile ad hoc network, network nodes are continuously capable of movement, but have battery limitations and these characteristics of MANET cause network link failure. Therefore, when performing ubiquitous services with the application of MANET, a technique is required to improve the packet transmission rates as to enable continuous packet transmission while flexibly adapting to topology changes caused by the mobility of nodes. In this paper, we are proposing PAOMDV(Possibility based AOMDV) and OLSR-ME(OLSR with Modified Energy Efficiency) which are mixed-type protocols to solve the problem for design a more efficient protocol. Especially by classifying mobile ad hoc networks as clusters, OLSR-ME protocol is implemented on communication within the clusters, while PAOMDV is used in protocols between clusters. In addition, a selection algorithm for forwarding nodes that responding packet relays in the case of increased hops was proposed for designing a more efficient protocol than existing protocols. We verified the performance of the proposed protocols through a comparative experiment with AODV, AOMDV, ZRP, and the existing protocols. We confirmed the results of the experiment revealed that the proposed protocol had the best packet transmission rate, the shortest delay between nodes, and showed better results in routing overhead.

This paper presents cluster based hybrid spectrum sensing system for M2M services. For each cluster, secondary nodes within the transmission radius of the primary node use hard decision method through local spectrum sensing to determine whether the primary node exists. And the other secondary nodes and the secondary nodes having poor radio channel conditions judge the existence of the primary node through the soft decision method of the values obtained by performing the cooperative spectrum sensing. In the proposed hybrid spectrum sensing system, the performance according to the number of secondary nodes is analyzed with the conventional system over Rayleigh fading channel. As the number of cooperative sensing users increased to 2, 3 and 4, the cluster error probability decreased to 0.5608, 0.5252 and 0.4001 at SNR of -10[dB] respectively. Since the proposed system uses less overhead traffic, it is found that it is more effective in terms of frequency usage than the conventional system using soft decision-soft decision and soft decision-hard decision methods.

무선 센서 네트워크의 규모가 커짐에 따라 대규모의 센서 네트워크의 활용에 대한 기대가 커지고 있다. 기존 IEEE 802.15.4 를 이용한 네트워크의 규모에 따른 한계를 극복하기 위해 듀얼 라디오 센서 네트워크에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 듀얼 라디오 센서 네트워크는 단일 라디오를 내장한 전통적인 센서 노드(싱글 라디오 노드)에 듀얼 라디오 인터페이스(IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.15.4)를 내장한 센서(듀얼 라디오 노드)를 포함하여 클러스터를 구성한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 듀얼 라디오 환경에서 효과적으로 동작하는 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다. 듀얼 라디오 노드는 네트워크 상에서 클러스터 헤드 역할을 하고 상위 계층을 이루며, 일반 노드는 클러스터 멤버 역할을 하는 하위 계층을 이룬다. 본 논문에서는 각 계층의 네트워크가 나타내는 특징을 이동성이 적거나 높은 네트워크의 특징으로 대입하여, 상위 계층에는 Pro-Active 프로토콜, 하위 계층에는 Re-active 프로토콜이 효과적임을 설명한다. 이를 바탕으로 듀얼 라디오 센서 네트워크에 적합한 라우팅 프로토콜로써 Pro-Active 프로토콜을 대표하는 DSDV 와 Re-Active 프로토콜을 대표하는 AODV 를 조합한 하이브리드 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안한 프로토콜의 성능을 확인하기 위해 센서네트워크 테스트베드를 구성하여 라우팅 복구 시간과 패킷 전송 안정성에 대한 성능을 입증한다.

WSN consists of hundreds to thousands of sensor nodes. In order to solve the problem of energy consumption imbalance cluster head is reelected in every round, while node authentication scheme is utilized for secure communication. However, re-clustering increases the overhead of sensor nodes and during the node authentication phase the frequent AREQ/AREP message exchange also increases the overhead. Therefore, a secure and energy efficient protocol, by which overhead of sensor nodes is reduced and long time communication is achieved, is required for wireless sensor network. In this paper, an energy efficient and reliable IDE-LEACH protocol for WSN is proposed. The proposed protocol is prolongs networks lifetime about average 20% compared to the LEACH-based protocols and all attending nodes in communication form BS authentication consisted of trusted nodes.

The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. Wireless body area network is usually configured in energy efficient using sensor and zigbee device due to the power limitation and the characteristics of human body. Wireless sensor network consist of sensor field and sink node. Sensor field are composed a lot of sensor node and sink node collect sensing data. Wireless sensor network has capacity of the self constitution by protocol where placed in large area without fixed position. Mobile sink node distribute energy consumption therefore network life time was increased than fixed sink node. The energy efficient is important matter in wireless body area network because energy resource was limited on sensor node. In this paper we proposed cluster topology algorithm for efficient data transmission in wireless body area network based mobile sink. The proposed algorithm show good performance under the advantage of grid routing protocol and TDMA scheduling that minimized overlap area on cluster and reduced amount of data on cluster header in error prone wireless sensor network based on mobile sink.

Nuclear power plants have a lower cost of power generation, and they are more eco-friendly than other power generation plants. Also, we need to prepare nuclear plant accidents because of their severe damage. In the event of a safety accident, such as a radiation leak, by applying a wireless sensor network to a nuclear power plant, many sensor nodes can be used to monitor radiation and transmit information to an external base station to appropriately respond to the accident. However, applying a wireless sensor network to nuclear power plants requires routing protocols that consider the sensor network size and bypass obstacles such as plant buildings. In general, the hierarchical-based routing protocols are efficient in energy consumption. In this study, we look into the problems that may occur if hierarchical-based routing protocols are applied to nuclear power plants and propose improved routing protocols to solve these problems. Simulation results show that the proposed routing protocol is more effective in energy consumption than the existing LEACH protocol.

Mobile Ad Hoc Network에서는 무선으로 연결된 호스트들이 쉽게 이동할 수 있으며 미리 설치된 유선망을 이용하는 셀롤러망과 달리 이동 호스트 사이의 통신만으로 이루어진 망이다. Mobile Ad Hoc Network에서는 각각의 노드들의 이동성이 높기 때문에 이 각각의 노드들의 라우팅 경로를 결정하는 것이 중요하다. 이에 따라 Mobile Ad Hoc Network를 위한 많은 라우팅 프로토콜이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 기존에 제안된 Cluster Based Routing Protocol(CBRP)극 변형하여 마치 셀롤러망에서의 셀과 같이 고정된 위치를 하나의 셀로 정의하고 그 하나의 셀이 클러스터를 형성하여 라우팅 오버 헤드를 줄일 수 있는 기법을 제안한다.
