Data packets from sensor nodes scattered over measuring fields are generally forwarding to the sink node, which may be connected to the wired networks, in a wireless sensor network. So many data packets are gathered near the sink node, resulting in significant data packet collisions and severe transmission latency. In an event detection application such as object tracking and military, bursty data is generated when an event occurs. So many data packet should be transmitted in a limited time to the sink node. In this paper, we present a delay efficient and bursty traffic friendly MAC protocol called DEBF-MAC protocol for wireless sensor networks. The DEBF-MAC uses a slot-reserved mechanism and sleep period control method to send multiple data packets efficiently in an operational cycle time. Our simulation results show that DEBF-MAC outperforms DW-MAC and SR-MAC in terms of energy consumption and transmission delay.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require an enormous number of sensor nodes (SNs) to maintain processing, sensing, and communication capabilities for monitoring targeted sensing regions. SNs are generally operated by batteries and have a significantly restricted energy consumption; therefore, it is necessary to discover optimization techniques to enhance network lifetime by saving energy. The principal focus is on reducing the energy consumption of packet sharing (transmission and receiving) and improving the network lifespan. To achieve this objective, this paper presents a novel improved energy-efficient cluster-based routing protocol (IECRP) that aims to accomplish this by decreasing the energy consumption in data forwarding and receiving using a clustering technique. Doing so, we successfully increase node energy and network lifetime. In order to confirm the improvement of our algorithm, a simulation is done using matlab, in which analysis and simulation results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than that of two well-known recent benchmarks.

무선 센서 네트워크의 센서 노드는 브로드캐스트 방식을 사용하여 수집한 데이터를 이웃한 다른 센서노드로 전달하기 때문에 데이터 중복성 문제가 발생한다. 데이터 중복성은 네트워크 로드를 가중시키며 데이터 손실의 원인이 되며, 이러한 문제점은 데이터 전송의 신뢰성과 네트워크 혼잡 회피간의 상충조건에 의해 발생한다. 따라서 무선 센서 네트워크에서 효율적으로 혼잡제어를 수행하기 위해서는 신뢰성 있는 전송(reliable transmission), 무선 손실(wireless loss), 혼잡 손실(congestion loss) 등과 같은 여러 요소를 고려한 신뢰성 있는 혼잡제어 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 Hop-by-Hop 순서 번호, DSbACK(Delayed and Selective ACK, Buffer Condition)을 사용하여 신뢰성 있는 전송을 보장하고 불필요한 전송을 최소화한 에너지 절약형 혼잡 제어 기법으로 HRCCP(Hop-by-Hop Reliable Congestion Control Protocol)를 제안하여 무선 센서 네트워크에서 신뢰성 있는 전송과 흔잡 제어가 동시에 이루어 질수 있도록 하였다.

In the present, Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) has been used for the purpose of the military operation with surveillance systems and for collecting useful information from the natural environment. Basically, low-power, easy deployment and low cost are the most important factors to be deployed for WSNs. Lots of researches have been studied to meet those requirements, especially on the node capacity and battery lifetime improvements. Recently, the study of wireless mesh networks applied into the surveillance systems has been proceeded as a solution of easy deployment. In this paper, we proposed large-scale intelligent multi-layer surveillance systems based on QoS assuring Wireless Mesh Networks and implemented them in the real testbed environment. The proposed system explains functions and operations for each subsystem as well as S/W and H/W architectures. Experimental results are shown for the implemented subsystems and the performance is satisfactory for the surveillance system. We can identify the possibility of the implemented multi-layer surveillance system to be used in practice.

무선 센서 네트워크(WSN)는 제한된 배터리 자원으로 인해 수명이 짧다는 근본적인 문제뿐 아니라, 고정된 위치의 싱크로 인한 싱크 주변 노드의 에너지 소비가 비정상적으로 증가하는 에너지 불균형 문제도 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하고자, 최근에는 태양 에너지 수집형 노드를 사용하여 에너지를 지속적으로 수집함으로써 배터리 자원 제약 문제를 해결하고, 또한 모바일 싱크를 활용하여 고정된 싱크 노드 근처의 에너지 불균형 문제를 해결하려는 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존의 고정된 싱크 및 배터리 기반의 WSN을 위하여 제안된 유명한 데이터 수집 기법인 CTP(Collection Tree Protocol)도 이와 같은 에너지 제약 및 에너지 사용 불균형 문제는 고려하지 않고 설계되었는데, 따라서 정전 노드 발생 및 트리 구조의 루프화와 같은 네트워크의 안정성(Reliablilty)이 심각하게 저하되는 문제를 내포하고 있었다. 이를 해결하고자, 본 논문에서는 모바일 싱크와 태양에너지 수집형 노드로 구성된 WSN을 위한 향상된 CTP 기법(Solar-CTP)을 제안한다. 제안된 Solar-CTP기법에서는 수집 에너지 및 사용 에너지양 예측을 통해 노드 동작 모드를 결정한다. 아울러 싱크의 주기적인 이동으로 싱크 주변 노드의 에너지 불균형 문제를 해결한다. 성능검증을 통해 기존 CTP에 비해 Solar-CTP의 정전 노드의 수가 줄어들고, 싱크의 데이터 수집량이 향상된 것을 확인하였다.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 효율적인 에너지 사용을 위하여 분산적(distributed)이며 지역적인(localized) 방법으로 가상 백본을 구성하는 것은 매우 중요한 연구 대상이다. 라우팅이나 메시지 broadcast와 같은 목적으로 센서 네트워크에서 가상 백본을 구성하기 위하여 연결 Dominating set이 주로 사용되고 있다. 네트워크의 전체 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 연결 Dominating set은 최대로 작은 수의 노드로 가상 백본을 구성는 동시에 각 노드들의 에너지 상태를 고려해야만 한다. 이 페이퍼에서는 현재 센서 네트워크를 구성하는데 가장 많이 논의되고 있는 IEEE 802.15.4를 기반으로 한 Zigbee 네트워크에서 differ time을 사용하여 효과적으로 에너지를 관리하며 가상 백본을 구성하는 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안된 가상 백본 프로토콜의 효율성은 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 증명한다.

Considering the topology of hierarchical tree structure, each cluster in WSNs is faced with various attacks launched by malicious nodes, which include network eavesdropping, channel interference and data tampering. The existing intrusion detection algorithm does not take into consideration the resource constraints of cluster heads and sensor nodes. Due to application requirements, sensor nodes in WSNs are deployed with approximately uncorrelated security weights. In our study, a novel and versatile intrusion detection system (IDS) for the optimal defense strategy is primarily introduced. Given the flexibility that wireless communication provides, it is unreasonable to expect malicious nodes will demonstrate a fixed behavior over time. Instead, malicious nodes can dynamically update the attack strategy in response to the IDS in each game stage. Thus, a multi-stage intrusion detection game (MIDG) based on Bayesian rules is proposed. In order to formulate the solution of MIDG, an in-depth analysis on the Bayesian equilibrium is performed iteratively. Depending on the MIDG theoretical analysis, the optimal behaviors of rational attackers and defenders are derived and calculated accurately. The numerical experimental results validate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed scheme.

Most secure solutions like cryptography are software based and they are designed to mainly deal with the outside attacks for traditional networks, but such soft security is hard to be implemented in wireless sensor networks to counter the inside attacks from internal malicious nodes. To address this issue, reputation has been introduced to tackle the inside malicious nodes. Reputation is essentially a stimulating mechanism for nodes' cooperation and is employed to detect node misbehaviors and improve the trust-worthiness between individual nodes. Among the reputation models, binomial distribution based reputation has many advantages such as light weight and ease of implementation in resource-constraint sensor nodes, and accordingly researchers have proposed many insightful related methods. However, some of them either directly use the modelling results, apply the models through simple modifications, or only use the required components while ignoring the others as an integral part of the whole model, this topic still lacks a comprehensive and systematical review. Thus the motivation of this study is to provide a thorough survey concerning each detailed functional components of binomial distribution based reputation for wireless sensor networks. In addition, based on the survey results, we also argue some open research problems and suggest the directions that are worth future efforts. We believe that this study is helpful to better understanding the reputation modeling mechanism and its components for wireless sensor networks, and can further attract more related future studies.

As WSNs(Wireless Sensor Networks) are being deployed widely in diverse application areas, their management and maintenance become more important. Recent sensor node software takes modular software architectures in pursuit of flexible software management and energy efficient reprogramming. To realize an flexible and efficient modular architecture particularly on resource constrained mote-class sensor nodes that are implemented with MCUs(Micro-Controller Units) of a single address space. an appropriate module linking model is essential to resolve and bind the inter-module global symbols. This paper identifies a design space of module linking model and respectively their implementation frameworks. We then establish a taxonomy for module linking models by exploring the design space of module linking models. Finally, we suggest an implementation framework respectively for each module linking model in the taxonomy. We expect that this work lays the foundations for systematic innovation toward more flexible and efficient modular software architectures for WSNs.

The easy scalability and low cost of range-free localization algorithms have led to their wide attention and application in node localization of wireless sensor networks. However, the existing range-free localization algorithms still have problems, such as large cumulative errors and poor localization performance. To solve these problems, an incremental strategy-based residual regression network is proposed for node localization in wireless sensor networks. The algorithm predicts the coordinates of the nodes to be solved by building a deep learning model and fine-tunes the prediction results by regression based on the intersection of the communication range between the predicted and real coordinates and the loss function, which improves the localization performance of the algorithm. Moreover, a correction scheme is proposed to correct the augmented data in the incremental strategy, which reduces the cumulative error generated during the algorithm localization. The analysis through simulation experiments demonstrates that our proposed algorithm has strong robustness and has obvious advantages in localization performance compared with other algorithms.
