Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a distributed network composed of many sensory nodes. It is precisely due to the clustering unevenness and cluster head election randomness that the energy consumption of WSN is excessive. Therefore, a many-objective optimization WSN energy balance model is proposed for the first time in the clustering stage of LEACH protocol. The four objective is considered that the cluster distance, the sink node distance, the overall energy consumption of the network and the network energy consumption balance to select the cluster head, which to better balance the energy consumption of the WSN network and extend the network lifetime. A many-objective optimization algorithm to optimize the model (LEACH-ABF) is designed, which combines adaptive balanced function strategy with penalty-based boundary selection intersection strategy to optimize the clustering method of LEACH. The experimental results show that LEACH-ABF can balance network energy consumption effectively and extend the network lifetime when compared with other algorithms.

Efficient energy consumption in WSN is one of the key design issues for improving network stability period. In this paper, we propose a new Heterogeneity-aware Energy-efficient Clustering (HEC) technique which considers two types of heterogeneity - network lifetime and of sensor nodes. Selection of cluster head nodes is done based on the three network lifetime phases: only advanced nodes are allowed to become cluster heads in the initial phase; in the second active phase all nodes are allowed to participate in cluster head selection process with equal probability, and in the last dying out phase, clustering is relaxed by allowing direct transmission. Simulation-based performance analysis of the proposed technique as compared to other relevant techniques shows that HEC achieves longer stable region, improved throughput, and better energy dissipation owing to judicious consumption of additional energy of advanced nodes. On an average, the improvement observed for stability period over LEACH, SEP, FAIR and HEC- with SEP protocols is around 65%, 30%, 15% and 17% respectively. Further, the scalability of proposed technique is tested by varying the field size and number of sensing nodes. The results obtained are found to be quite optimistic. The impact of energy heterogeneity has also been assessed and it is found to improve the stability period though only upto a certain extent.

Recently, sink mobility has been shown to be highly beneficial in improving network lifetime in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Numerous studies have exploited mobile sinks (MSs) to collect sensed data in order to improve energy efficiency and reduce WSN operational costs. However, there have been few studies on the effectiveness of MS operation on WSN closed operating cycles. Therefore, it is important to investigate how data is collected and how to plan the trajectory of the MS in order to gather data in time, reduce energy consumption, and improve WSN network lifetime. In this study, we combine two methods, the cluster-head election algorithm and the MS trajectory optimization algorithm, to propose the optimal MS movement strategy. This study aims to provide a closed operating cycle for WSNs, by which the energy consumption and running time of a WSN is minimized during the cluster election and data gathering periods. Furthermore, our flexible MS movement scenarios achieve both a long network lifetime and an optimal MS schedule. The simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm achieves better performance than other well-known algorithms.

제한된 자원을 가진 센서 노드들로 구성된 센서 네트워크에서 가장 중요한 이슈 중 하나는 쑤어진 에너지를 최대한 활용하여 네트워크 수명을 연장하는 것이다. 네트워크 수명을 연장하는 가장 대표적인 방법은 클러스터링 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 CH(Cluster Head) 및 후보 CH 노드들로부터 주어지는 통신 부하(load)와 잔여 에너지 양에 대한 정보를 기반으로 클러스터 크기를 동적으로 변화시켜 클러스터 내의 노드 밀도에 상관없이 각 CH에게 주어지는 부담을 일정하게 유지시키는 새로운 동적 크기 다중홉 클러스터링 방법을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 방법이 기존의 단일홉 모드나 고정 크기 다중홉 모드 클러스터링 방법보다 우수함을 보였다.

수중 환경은 육상 환경과 많은 차이를 보이며 무선 통신에 사용되는 자원과 제약 조건들도 다르다. 일반적으로 수중 통신 환경은 육상 통신 환경보다 열악하고, 파도, 조류와 같은 해수의 흐름으로 인한 노드의 이동성 때문에 오류 발생 가능성이 기존의 지상 무선 센서 네트워크 보다 높다. 따라서 수중 무선 센서 네트워크의 통신 환경을 고려하여 노드 간 데이터 전송률을 향상시키기 위한 기법들에 대한 요구가 높아지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 수중 무선 센서 네트워크의 통신 환경을 고려하여 클러스터 헤드 노드의 오류 발생 시 이를 빠른 시간 내에 복구하기 위한 체크포인팅 기법을 제안한다. 또한 실험을 통해 제안 기법이 네트워크 운영의 신뢰도를 향상 시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 에너지 소모량과 오류 복구 지연 시간 측면에서 제안 기법을 적용하지 않았을 때보다 좋은 성능을 보인다는 것을 검증한다.

무선 센서 네트워크의 클러스터링(Clustering)기법은 센서 노드의 에너지 소모를 최소화하기 위한 목적으로 개발되어 Network Lifetime을 증대시키는 효과를 보인다. 기존의 클러스터링 기법들은 센서 노드들이 CH(Cluster Head) 역할을 교대로 수행함으로써 각 노드의 에너지 소모를 균등하도록 하여 Network Lifetime을 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였지만, 싱크(Sink) 노드와 인접한 노드들의 에너지 소모를 최소화하는 방안은 제시하지 못했다. 본 논문에서는 싱크 노드의 POS(Personal Operating Space)내에 존재하는 인접 노드들의 일부를 클러스터의 멤버(Member) 노드로 가입시키지 않고, 직접 싱크 노드와 통신하게 함으로써 싱크 노드와 인접한 CH의 에너지 소모를 줄여 Network Lifetime을 연장하는 클러스터링 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

With the increasing demands for mobile wireless sensor networks in recent years, designing an energy-efficient clustering and routing protocol has become very important. This paper provides an analytical model to evaluate the power consumption of a mobile sensor node. Based on this, a clustering algorithm is designed to optimize the energy efficiency during cluster head formation. A genetic algorithm technique is employed to find the near-optimal threshold for residual energy below which a node has to give up its role of being the cluster head. This clustering algorithm along with a hybrid routing concept is applied as the near-optimal energy-efficient routing technique to increase the overall efficiency of the network. Compared to the mobile low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy protocol, the simulation studies reveal that the energy-efficient routing technique produces a longer network lifetime and achieves better energy efficiency.

A Mobile Sensor Network is widely used in real time applications. A critical need in Mobile Sensor Network is to achieve energy efficiency during routing as the sensor nodes have scarce energy resource. The nodes' mobility in MWSN poses a challenge to design an energy efficient routing protocol. Clustering helps to achieve energy efficiency by reducing the organization complexity overhead of the network which is proportional to the number of nodes in the network. This paper proposes"EERA: Energy Efficient Routing Algorithm for Mobile Sensor Network" is divided into five phases. 1, Cluster Formation 2.Cluster head and Transmission head selection 3.Path Establishment / Route discovery and 4,Data Transmission. Experimental Analysis has been done and is found that the proposed method performs better than the existing method with respect to four parameters.
