무선 센서 네트워크 시스템에서 에너지 효율을 증가시키기 위한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있으며 그중에서도 통신과 관련된 에너지 소모를 감소시키는 연구가 가장 많이 진행되어 왔다. 실제로 각 노드에서는 통신 및 센싱이 빈번하게 일어난다. 그러므로 통신에서의 에너지 효율을 증가시키기 위해서는 센싱 주기와 전송 주기를 제어하는 기능이 요구된다. 또한 질의에 해당하는 노드에게만 질의를 전파함으로써 전송횟수의 감소를 통하여 에너지 소비를 감소할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 질의어를 통해 센싱 주기와 전송 주기를 제어할 수 있는 노드 관리 기능과 서비스 디스커버리 기술을 응용하여 질의에 해당하는 노드에게만 질의 전파 제한 메커니즘을 제안하고, 구현하며 성능을 평가한다.

In the task of data routing in Internet of Things enabled volatile underwater environments, providing better transmission and maximizing network communication performance are always challenging. Many network issues such as void holes and network isolation occur because of long routing distances between nodes. Void holes usually occur around the sink because nodes die early due to the high energy consumed to forward packets sent and received from other nodes. These void holes are a major challenge for I-UWSANs and cause high end-to-end delay, data packet loss, and energy consumption. They also affect the data delivery ratio. Hence, this paper presents an energy efficient watchman based flooding algorithm to address void holes. First, the proposed technique is formally verified by the Z-Eves toolbox to ensure its validity and correctness. Second, simulation is used to evaluate the energy consumption, packet loss, packet delivery ratio, and throughput of the network. The results are compared with well-known algorithms like energy-aware scalable reliable and void-hole mitigation routing and angle based flooding. The extensive results show that the proposed algorithm performs better than the benchmark techniques.

WSN은 수백에서 수 만개에 달하는 SN들로 구성된다. WSN은 에너지 불균형 문제 해결을 위해 각 라운드마다 클러스터헤드를 새롭게 선택하고, 안전한 통신을 위해 노드 인증방식을 사용하고 있다. 그러나 이런 방법은 각 라운드마다 재-클러스터링을 수행함으로 SN의 오버헤드를 가중시키는 원인이 되고 안전한 통신을 제공하기 위한 인증단계는 빈번히 발생되는 AREQ/AREP 메시지 처리로 노드의 오버헤드를 더욱 가중시키고 있다. 라서 이 논문에서는 WSN 환경에서 에너지 효율적 운영과 신뢰성이 보장된 IDE-LEACH(Identity based Encryption : IDE) 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안 프로토콜은 기존 LEACH 기반의 프로토콜보다 통신에 평균적으로 20%까지 네트워크 수명을 연장하였고, 통신에 참여하는 모든 노드는 기지국으로부터 인증을 거친 신뢰할 수 있는 노드들로 구성된다.

Recently, there are many studies, that considering green wireless cellular networks, have taken the energy consumption of the base station (BS) into consideration. In this work, we first introduce an energy consumption model of multi-mode sharing BS powered by multiple energy sources including renewable energy, local storage and power grid. Then communication load requests of the BS are transformed to energy demand queues, and battery energy level and worst-case delay constraints are considered into the virtual queue to ensure the network QoS when our objective is to minimize the long term electricity cost of BSs. Lyapunov optimization method is applied to work out the optimization objective without knowing the future information of the communication load, real-time electricity market price and renewable energy availability. Finally, linear programming is used, and the corresponding energy efficient scheduling policy is obtained. The performance analysis of our proposed online algorithm based on real-world traces demonstrates that it can greatly reduce one day's electricity cost of individual BS.

For energy-efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), when a sensor node detects events, the sensing period for collecting the detailed information is likely to be short. The lifetime of WSNs decreases because communication modules are used excessively on a specific sensor node. To solve this problem, the TARP decentralized network packets to neighbor nodes. It considered the average data transmission rate as well as the data distribution. However, since the existing scheme did not consider the energy consumption of a node in WSNs, its network lifetime is reduced. In this paper, we propose an energy awareness congestion control scheme based on genetic algorithms in WSNs. The proposed scheme considers the remaining amount of energy and the transmission rate on a single node in fitness evaluation. Since the proposed scheme performs an efficient congestion control, it extends the network lifetime. In order to show the superiority of the proposed scheme, we compare it with the existing scheme through performance evaluation. It is shown that the proposed scheme enhances the data fairness and improves the network lifetime by about 27% on average over the existing scheme.

The voltage-frequency island (VFI) design paradigm has strong potential for achieving high energy efficiency in communication centric manycore system-on-chip (SoC) design called network-on-chip (NoC). However, because of the diminished scaling of wire-dimension and supply voltage as well as threshold voltage in modern CMOS technology, the vulnerability to link failure in VFI NoC is becoming a crucial challenge. In this paper, we propose an energy-optimized topology generation technique for VFI NoC to cope with permanent link failures. Based on the energy consumption model, we exploit the on-chip communication traffic patterns and characteristics of link failures in the early design stage to accommodate diverse applications and architectures. Experimental results using a number of multimedia application benchmarks show the effectiveness of the proposed three-step custom topology generation method in terms of energy consumption and latency without any degradation in the fault coverage metric.

Energy efficiency in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is one significant factor that needs to be considered when making any designs or doing any enhancements on the communication protocol stack. In WSNs using traditional geographic routing, when a sensor node receives a data packet that needs to be transmitted to the sink, it will forward the packet to the neighbor node which is closest to the sink. The traditional geographic routing assumes that the link quality is always 100%. This may cause a bad result as per which we waste too many energy for retransmissions between the two nodes. Thus, the problem here is how to select such node as forwarder at most efficiently in the aspect of both energy consumption and the distance toward the destination. The better node we choose, the more energy we can conserve for the whole network. In this paper, we propose a next-hop forwarding selection metric, called Energy Consumption for Transmission (ECT), which can resolve the above problem in the best way.

Greedy forwarding is the key mechanism of geographic routing and is one of the protocols used most commonly in wireless sensor networks. Greedy forwarding uses 1-hop local information to forward packets to the destination and does not have to maintain the routing table, and thus it takes small overhead and has excellent scalability. However, the signal intensity reduces exponentially with the distance in realistic wireless sensor network, and greedy forwarding consumes a lot of energy, since it forwards the packets to the neighbor node closest to the destination. Previous proposed greedy forwarding protocols are the sender-based greedy forwarding that a sender selects a neighbor node to forward packets as the forwarding node and hence they cannot guarantee energy efficient forwarding in unpredictable wireless environment. In this paper, we propose the receiver-based greedy forwarding called RGF where one of the neighbor nodes that received the packet forwards it by itself. In RGF, sender selects several energy efficient nodes as candidate forwarding nodes and decides forwarding priority of them in order to prevent unnecessary transmissions. The simulation results show that RGF improves delivery rate up to maximum 66.8% and energy efficiency, 60.9% compared with existing sender-based greedy forwarding.

Energy consumption has become a main problem of sustainable development in communication networks and how to communicate with high energy efficiency is a significant topic that researchers and network operators commonly concern. In this paper, an energy-efficient multicast algorithm in multi-hop wireless networks is proposed aiming at new generation wireless communications. Traditional multi-hop wireless network design only considers either network efficiency or minimum energy consumption of networks, but rarely the maximum energy efficiency of networks. Different from previous methods, the paper targets maximizing energy efficiency of networks. In order to get optimal energy efficiency to build network multicast, our proposed method tries to maximize network throughput and minimize networks' energy consumption by exploiting network coding and sleeping scheme. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has better energy efficiency and performance improvements compared with existing methods.
