In this study, we use a parallel simulator PASENS(Parallel SEnsor Network Simulator) to predict power consumption and data reception rate of the hierarchical routing protocols for sensor network - LEACH (Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy), TL-LEACH (Two Level Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy), M-LEACH (Multi hop Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) and LEACH-C (LEACH-Centralized). According to simulation results, M-LEACH routing protocol shows the highest data reception rate for the wider area, since more sensor nodes are involved in the data transmission. And LEACH-C routing protocol, where the sink node considers the entire node's residual energy and location to determine the cluster head, results in the most efficient energy consumption and in the narrow area needed long life of sensor network.

Common to use fixed-node sensor network and wireless sensor networks, unlike the recent move of the node happens frequently. These wireless sensor networks by taking into account the mobility of sensor nodes dynamically self-configurable routing protocol is required. In this paper, a fixed-node configuration and energy efficiency in the self-LEACH protocol is based on the useful movement of the nodes of the cluster is dynamically self-configuring routing protocols offer M-LEACH.

In this paper, we introduce an EMSP(Efficient Mobility Support Protocol) for mobile sensor network with mobility-aware. We propose virtual cluster and node split scheme considering movements of mobile nodes. The existing M-LEACH protocol suffers from communication cost spent on JOIN request information during invitation phase. To address this issue, the large boundary of the cluster in LUR-tree can reduce superfluous update cost. In addition to the expansion of the cluster, the proposed approach exploits node split algorithms used in R-tree in order to uniformly form a cluster. The simulated results show that energy-consumption has less up to about 40% than LEACH-C and 8% than M-LEACH protocol. Finally, we show that the proposed scheme outperforms those of other in terms of lifetime of sensor fields and scalability in wireless sensor network.

We develop a low complexity cooperative diversity protocol for low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) based wireless sensor networks. A cross layer approach is used to obtain spatial diversity in the physical layer. In this paper, a simple modification in clustering algorithm of the LEACH protocol is proposed to exploit virtual multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) based user cooperation. In lieu of selecting a single cluster-head at network layer, we proposed M cluster-heads in each cluster to obtain a diversity order of M in long distance communication. Due to the broadcast nature of wireless transmission, cluster-heads are able to receive data from sensor nodes at the same time. This fact ensures the synchronization required to implement a virtual MIMO based space time block code (STBC) in cluster-head to sink node transmission. An analytical method to evaluate the energy consumption based on BER curve is presented. Analysis and simulation results show that proposed cooperative LEACH protocol can save a huge amount of energy over LEACH protocol with same data rate, bit error rate, delay and bandwidth requirements. Moreover, this proposal can achieve higher order diversity with improved spectral efficiency compared to other virtual MIMO based protocols.

A simple modification of well known Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) protocol is proposed to exploit cooperative diversity. Instead of selecting a single cluster-head, we propose M cluster-heads in each cluster to obtain a diversity of order M. The cluster-heads gather data from all the sensor nodes within the cluster using same technique as LEACH. Cluster-heads transmit gathered data cooperatively towards the destination or higher order cluster-head. We propose a code combining based cooperative diversity protocol which is similar to coded cooperation that maximizes the performance of the proposed cooperative LEACH protocol. The implementation of the proposed cooperative strategy is analyzed. We develop the upper bounds on bit error rate (BER) and frame error rate (FER) for our proposal. Space time block codes (STBC) are also a suitable candidate for our proposal. In this paper, we argue that the STBC performs worse than the code combining cooperation.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 센서 노드는 한정된 에너지를 가진다. 이에 센서 노드의 전송 에너지의 효율을 높여 네트워크의 수명을 연장하는 것이 중요하다. 무선 센서 네트워크에서 LEACH는 클러스터 헤드가 난수를 이용한 확률값으로 선출하여 주변 노드들과 함께 클러스터를 구성한다. 그러나 노드들이 베이스 스테이션과 클러스터 헤드 사이에 존재할 경우 클러스터 헤드로 데이터를 전송하게 되므로, 베이스 스테이션의 역방향으로 전송하게 된다. 이는 역방향 전송을 받은 클러스터 헤드가 다시 베이스 스테이션에 데이터를 전송하게 되어 불필요한 에너지를 소비한다. 본 논문에서는 LEACH의 불필요한 전송 에너지의 소비를 줄이기 위하여 D-LEACH를 제안한다. D-LEACH는 센서 노드와 베이스 스테이션 그리고 클러스터 헤드 사이의 거리를 계산하여 직접 전송하거나 멀티 홉 전송으로 데이터의 전송방향을 베이스 스테이션이 위치한 방향으로만 전송하게 함으로 전송 에너지 효율을 높인다.

무선 센서 네트워크는 다수의 센서 노드와 하나의 싱크노드로 구성된다. 센서 네트워크상에 분포된 센서 노드들은 데이터 전송 중에 배터리 재충전이나 변경이 곤란하다. 센서들의 제한적 특성을 때문에 일반 유선 네트워크와 달리 에너지 효율적인 네트워크 설계를 요구한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 계층적 클러스터 라우팅 프로토콜로서 LEACH 프로토콜을 분석하고, 센서들의 에너지 소모를 줄이고, 네트워크 수명을 연장하는 개선된 LEACH 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다. 최적 클러스터를 결정하는 기법을 이용하여 클러스터 수를 고려한 클러스터를 형성하고, 성능 분석은 MATALAB을 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 본 개선된 프로토콜이 LEACH 프로토콜과 비교하여 우수함을 보였다.

To understand the long-term leach behavior of a borosilicate Waste glass in a repository, the leaching experiment with three kinds of simulated borosilicate waste glasses has been carried out since the middle of 1997. The five years results indicate that a boron would be applied as an indicator of a long-term leaching of their borosilicate waste glasses and that their long-term leach rates have a tendency to be close to about 0.03g/$m^2$-day even though their compositions and their ratios of the surface area to the volume of leachate are different.

We studied a selective recovery condition of vanadium (V) from FALL (Fly Ash Leach Liquor) produced at a fossil fuel power station using heavy oil. By applying a spectroscopy to quantify the V in a sample, we identified a concentration range V interfered by on presence of metals such as Ni, Fe Also, the optimal vanadium precipitation rate according to the amount of 5.0M $NH_3$ loaded to the sample, solution pH and stirring time. As a result of the experiment, the maximum selective recovery ratio of V was achieved to be higher than 91.5% when the stirring duration was less than 1 minute at pH 7.0, and $25^{\circ}C$.
