In this paper, we investigate cooperative spectrum sensing scheme for sensor network-aided cognitive radio systems with energy harvesting capability. In the proposed model, each sensor node harvests ambient energy from environment such as solar, wind, mechanical vibration, or thermoelectric effect. We propose adaptive cooperative spectrum sensing scheme in which each sensor node adaptively carries out energy detection depending on the residual energy in its energy storage and then conveys the sensing result to the fusion center. From simulation results, we show that the proposed scheme minimizes the false alarm probability for given target detection probability by adjusting the number of samples for energy detector.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) generally consist of densely deployed sensor nodes that depend on batteries for energy. Having a large number of densely deployed sensor nodes causes energy waste and high redundancy in sensor data transmissions. The problems of power limitation and high redundancy in sensing coverage can be solved by appropriate scheduling of node activity among sensor nodes. In this paper, we propose a cellular automata based node scheduling algorithm for prolonging network lifetime with a balance of energy savings among nodes while achieving high coverage quality. Based on a cellular automata framework, we propose a new mathematical model for the node scheduling algorithm. The proposed algorithm uses local interaction based on environmental state signaling for making scheduling decisions. We analyze the system behavior and derive steady states of the proposed system. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms existing protocols by providing energy balance with significant energy savings while maintaining sensing coverage quality.

Wireless sensor networks consist of small battery powered devices with limited energy resources. Once deployed, the small sensor nodes are usually inaccessible to the user, and thus replacement of the energy source is not feasible. Hence, energy efficiency is a key design issue that needs to be enhanced in order to improve the life span of the network. In BCDCP, all sensors send data from CH (Cluster Head) and then to BS (Base Station). BCDCP works well in small-scale network but in large scale network it is not appropriated since it uses much energy for long distance wireless communication. We propose a routing protocol - Triangular Clustering Routing Protocol (TCRP) - to prolong network life time through the balanced energy consumption. TCRP selects cluster head of triangular shape. The sensor field is divided into energy level and in every level we choose one node as a gate node. This gate node collects data and sends it to the leader node. Finally the leader node sends the aggregated data to the BS. We show TCRP outperforms BCDCP with several experiments.

WBAN/USN systems are applied from the various environment. Therefore, it is coming to be important efficient use power and communication method. The present paper materialize Slave node system which get power from light energy. Also, it materialize Wake-up module and self-power-off circuit which use S-R Flip Flop for efficient using power. This system can be efficient using power at Slave node system. Also, it can be possible application of Self sustaining system by performance verification Wake-up module which determine system "on" without power and Self-power-off circuit.

LEACH, a layer-based routing protocol used in wireless sensor networks, sends fused data from the cluster head to the sink node in a single hop, so as the network size increases, the distance to the sink node increases significantly, which increases energy consumption. In addition, existing multi-hop transmission studies to solve this problem have problems with reverse transmission in the process of finding the next node to be transmitted and passing through this node. In this paper, we propose a multi-hop routing technique that selects a relay node based on the distance to the sink node and transmits it to a relay node via general nodes located in a straight line between the relay node and each cluster head. By reducing the transmission distance between nodes and minimizing reverse transmission occurring in the process through adjacent nodes, it was confirmed that the network life was extended compared to the previously proposed LEACH and EEACP protocols.

The most important factor in the wireless sensor network is the use of effective energy and increase in lifetime of the individual nodes in order to operate the wireless network more efficiently. For this purpose, various routing protocols have been developed. The LEACH such a protocol, well known among typical cluster routing protocols. However, when a cluster head is selected, the energy consumption may not be equal because it does not take into account the energy of the nodes. In this paper, we seek to improve the cluster head selection method according to residual energy of each sensor node. This method then adaptively applies the LEACH algorithm and the cluster head section algorithm with consideration of node energy in accordance with the energy of the whole sensor field. Through the simulation, it was found that this proposed algorithm was effective.

As one of the most significant challenges in the virtual data center, the virtual data center embedding has attracted extensive attention from researchers. The existing research works mainly focus on how to design algorithms to increase operating revenue. However, they ignore the energy consumption issue of the physical data center in virtual data center embedding. In this paper, we focus on studying the energy-aware virtual data center embedding problem. Specifically, we first propose an energy consumption model. It includes the energy consumption models of the virtual machine node and the virtual switch node, aiming to quantitatively measure the energy consumption in virtual data center embedding. Based on such a model, we propose two algorithms regarding virtual data center embedding: one is heuristic, and the other is based on particle swarm optimization. The second algorithm provides a better solution to virtual data center embedding by leveraging the evolution process of particle swarm optimization. Finally, experiment results show that our proposed algorithms can effectively save energy while guaranteeing the embedding success rate.

This paper proposes an energy efficient ECG monitoring system by putting some intelligence on the sensor node to reduce the number of transmissions. The sensor node is mostly put into the processing mode and just connects the base station when necessary. Therefore, the transmission energy is greatly reduced while the energy for processing is increased a little bit. Our proposed ECG analysis method classifies ECG cycles by computing the Euclidean distance between the sensed ECG cycle and the reference ECG cycle. This work is a detailed and full explanation of our former work. Extended experimental results show that the proposed trade is very effective in saving energy and the Euclidean distance based classification method is accurate. Furthermore, the PowerTOSSIM energy simulation method is also demonstrated as very accurate in evaluating the energy consumption of the sensor node in our application scenario.

In WBAN environment, it is very important to achieve energy efficiency of master and nodes, At the same time, a master also plays an important role in collecting data from nodes and controlling the nodes. By maintaining a master properly, any kinds of situation can be handled. Therefore, low power MAC protocol between a master and a node is highly required appropriately. We propose an improved MAC protocol by simply changing the frame structure of WBAN system. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme attains a lot of saving of energy consumption of master and each node compared with IEEE 802.15.6 and conventional schemes.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that improve network lifetime by adjusting cluster size according to location information of sensor node in wireless sensor network (WSN) using clustering technique. The sensed information in each cluster transfers to sink node through inter-cluster communications. Cluster head (CH) that nearby located in sink node much more spend own energy than far away CHs, because nearer CH forwards more data, so network lifetime is decreased. Proposed algorithm minimizes energy consumption in adjacent cluster to sink node by decreasing cluster site, and improve CH lifetime by distributing transmission paths. As a result of analysis, the proposed algorithm shows longer network lifetime in WSN.
