Network coding (NC) is a promising technology that can improve available bandwidth and packet throughput in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Sliding window is an improved technology of NC, which is a supplement of TCP/IP technology and can improve data throughput and network lifetime on WSNs. This paper proposes a network coding-based maximum lifetime algorithm for sliding window in WSNs (NC-MLSW) which improves the throughput and network lifetime in WSN. The packets on the source node are sent on the WSNs. The intermediate node encodes the received original packet and forwards the newly encoded packet to the next node. Finally, the destination node decodes the received encoded data packet and recovers the original packet. The performance of the NC-MLSW algorithm is studied using NS2 simulation software and the network packet throughput, network lifetime and data packet loss rate were evaluated. The simulations experiment results show that the NC-MLSW algorithm can obviously improve the network packet throughput and network lifetime.

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are composed of a large number of sensor nodes. Battery-powered sensor nodes have limited coverage; therefore, it is more efficient to transmit data via multi-hop communication. The network lifetime is a crucial issue in WSNs and the multi-hop routing protocol should be designed to prolong the network lifetime. Prolonging the network lifetime can be achieved by minimizing the power consumed by the nodes, as well as by balancing the power consumption among the nodes. A power imbalance can reduce the network lifetime even if several nodes have sufficient (battery) power. In this paper, we propose a routing protocol that prolongs the network lifetime by balancing the power consumption among the nodes. To improve the balance of power consumption and improve the network lifetime, the proposed routing scheme adaptively controls the transmission range using a power control according to the residual power in the nodes. We developed a routing simulator to evaluate the performance of the proposed routing protocol. The simulation results show that the proposed routing scheme increases power balancing and improves the network lifetime.

A sensor network consists of many low-cost, low-power, and multi-functional sensor nodes. One of most important issues in of sensor networks is to increase network lifetime, and there have been researches on the problem. In this paper, we propose a routing mechanism to prolong network lifetime, in which each node adjusts its transmission power to send data to its neighbors. We model the energy efficient routing with power control and present an algorithm to obtain the optimal flow solution for maximum network lifetime. Then, we derive an upper bound on the network lifetime for specific network topologies.

Cluster-based wireless sensor network (WSN) can significantly reduce the energy consumption by data aggregation and has been widely used in WSN applications. However, due to the intrinsic many-to-one traffic pattern in WSN, the network lifetime is generally deteriorated by the unbalanced energy consumption in a cluster-based WSN. Therefore, energy efficiency and network lifetime improvement are two crucial and challenging issues in cluster-based WSNs. In this paper, we propose a Non-Uniform Node Distribution (NUND) scheme to improve the energy efficiency and network lifetime in cluster-based WSNs. Specifically, we first propose an analytic model to analyze the energy consumption and the network lifetime of the cluster-based WSNs. Based on the analysis results, we propose a node distribution algorithm to maximize the network lifetime with a fixed number of sensor nodes in cluster-based WSNs. Extensive simulations demonstrate that the theoretical analysis results determined by the proposed analytic model are consistent with the simulation results, and the NUND can significantly improve the energy efficiency and network lifetime.

In this paper, we're compared network protocol which is network lifetime longer when using LEACH Protocol, SEP, and TEEN in a heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Network with a Large Sensor Area. Also, we propose a method of divided layer the wide-area sensor filed and transmitting a multi-hop to improve the network lifetime. And we're compared network protocol which is network lifetime more improved apply the proposed method to LEACH Protocol, SEP, and TEEN. We tried to compare results, TEEN showed the best network lifetime. Apply the proposed method to divided the sensor field, L-TEEN (Layered TEEN)'s network lifetime rates of improvement is highest.

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 노드의 일부를 클러스터의 멤버(Member) 노드로 가입시키지 않고, 직접싱크 노드와 통신하게 함으로써 싱크 노드와 인접한 CH의 에너지 소모를 줄여 Network Lifetime을 연장하는 클러스터링 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

In wireless sensor network, since each sensor is equipped with a limited power, efficient use of the energy is important. One possible network management scheme is to cluster the sensors into several sets, so that the sensors in each of the sets can completely perform the monitoring task. Then the sensors in one set become active to perform the monitoring task and the rest of the sensors switch to a sleep state to save energy. Therefore, we rotate the roles of the active set among the sensors to maximize the network lifetime. In this paper, we suggest an optimal algorithm for the maximum lifetime coverage problem which maximizes the network lifetime. For comparison, we implemented both the heuristic proposed earlier and our algorithm, and executed computational experiments. Our algorithm outperformed the heuristic concerning the obtained network lifetimes, and it found the solutions in a reasonable amount of time.

본 논문에서는 클러스터링 방식을 사용하는 무선 센서네트워크(WSN)에서 센서노드의 위치정보에 따라 클러스터의 크기를 다르게 설정하여, 네트워크의 수명을 향상시키는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 각 클러스터에서 수집된 정보는 클러스터 간(Inter-cluster) 통신으로 멀티 홉을 통하여 싱크노드에 전달된다. 싱크노드에 가까운 곳에 위치한 클러스터 헤더(CH)일수록 멀리 있는 클러스터 헤더보다 데이터 전달에 많이 관여하게 되어 에너지를 더욱 많이 소모하며 이로 인해서 네트워크의 수명이 줄어든다. 제안된 알고리즘은 싱크노드에 가까이 위치한 클러스터의 크기를 줄여서, 해당 클러스터 헤더에서의 에너지 소모를 최소화하고, 또한 싱크로 향하는 데이터들의 전송 경로를 다양화하여 클러스터 헤더의 통신 부담을 경감시킴으로써 네트워크의 수명을 연장시킨다. 제안된 알고리즘은 수학적인 분석 과정을 통해 성능을 검증하였다.
