In Wireless Sensor Networks, IEEE 802.11 happen unnecessary energy consume because of packet transmission using maximum power between sensor node. The BASIC scheme is to use maximum transmission power for RTS-CTS and minimum required transmission power so as to high energy efficiency for DATA-ACK. However BASIC scheme may degrade network throughput with collision of ACK packet by node in carrier sensing zone and may result in higher energy consumption than when using IEEE 802.11 without power control. Existing PCM(Power Control MAC) scheme is to use DATA packet transmission method by periodically maximum power level so as to sensing DATA packet transmit in carrier sensing zone of transmission node, and this method can avoid collision of ACK packet. This paper present problem by energy efficiency of PCM scheme, and design some more improved PCM scheme.

Wireless Sensor Networks are consisted of sensor nodes that communicated with each other to transmit information. Because sensor nodes have physically many limits, wireless sensor networks are hard to adopt for traditional networks. Transmissions are consumed most energy of sensor nodes. That's why energy-efficient transmission techniques and QoS support techniques for different kind of data are most important in wireless sensor networks. The thesis proposes the agent based framework for energy distribution and QoS in wireless sensor networks. Agents have its own behavior policy by means of a gene, which is optimized by genetic operations. Agents behavior to distribute energy consumption over sensor nodes. Simulation results show that the enhanced framework extends the lifetime of sensor nodes. Successful transmission ratios of emergency data and non emergency data are increased by 27% and 14%, respectively. Also, the results demonstrate that Qos of networks are improved.

Since wireless sensor networks consist of nodes with the constrained battery, it is important to construct the topology performing energy-efficient routing while maximizing the whole network lifetime. Previous works related to this do not take into consideration the specific communication pattern in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we propose a novel routing algorithm, called Up-Down Tree(UDT), which first constructs the tree topology based on distance and then adjusts the transmission range determined by the two different phases, tree setup and data gathering, to adapt the specific communication pattern in wireless sensor networks. Therefore, the UDT can improve energy efficiency, maximize the network lifetime, and block network partition Simulation results show that the UDT has the improved energy efficiency by constructing the optimal topology.

For an energy harvesting sensor network, when the network lifetime is not the only primary goal, maximizing the network performance under environmental energy harvesting becomes a more critical issue. However, clustering protocols that aim at providing maximum information throughput have not been thoroughly explored in Energy Harvesting Wireless Sensor Networks (EH-WSNs). In this paper, clustering protocols are studied for maximizing the data transmission in the whole network. Based on a long short-term memory (LSTM) energy predictor and node energy consumption and supplement models, an uneven clustering protocol is proposed where the cluster head selection and cluster size control are thoroughly designed for this purpose. Simulations and results verify that the proposed scheme can outperform some classic schemes by having more data packets received by the cluster heads (CHs) and the base station (BS) under these energy constraints. The outcomes of this paper also provide some insights for choosing clustering routing protocols in EH-WSNs, by exploiting the factors such as uneven clustering size, number of clusters, multiple CHs, multihop routing strategy, and energy supplementing period.

Recent researches reveal that great benefit can be achieved for data gathering in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) by employing mobile data collectors. In order to balance the energy consumption at sensor nodes and prolong the network lifetime, a multi-track large-scale mobile data collection mechanism (MTDCM) is proposed in this paper. MTDCM is composed of two phases: the Energy-balance Phase and the Data Collection Phase. In this mechanism, the energy-balance trajectories, the sleep-wakeup strategy and the data collection algorithm are determined. Theoretical analysis and performance simulations indicate that MTDCM is an energy efficient mechanism. It has prominent features on balancing the energy consumption and prolonging the network lifetime.

In this paper, we consider wireless sensor networks with hard energy constraint, where each node is powered by a small battery. Under this hard constraint, reducing energy consumption is the most important design consideration for wireless sensor networks. Energy saving and control is an important issue, involved in the design of most sensor nodes. In this context, we focus on physical layer design where energy constraint problem can be modeled as an optimization of transmission modulation scheme[1]. Specifically, our analyses are based on energy control schemes that are relative to physical layer design on upper bound SEP MPSK in AWGN channels.

Wireless sensor networks(WSN) technology has various applications such as surveillance and information gathering in the uncontrollable area of human. One of major issues in WSN is the research for reducing the energy consumption and reliability of data. A system with forward error correction(FEC) can provide an objective reliability while using less transmission power than a system without FEC. In this paper, we propose to use LDPC codes of various code rate(0.53, 0.81, 0.91) for FEC for WSN. Also, we considered node-to-node interference in addition to AWGN channel. The proposed system has not only high reliable data transmission at low SNR, but also reduced transmission power usage.

As for cluster-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs), cluster lifetime is one of the most important subjects in recent researches. Besides reducing the energy consumptions of the clusters, it is necessary to make the clusters achieve equal lifetimes so that the whole network can survive longer. In this paper, we focus on the cluster lifetimes in multi-hop WSNs with cooperative multi-input single-output scheme. With a simplified model of multi-hop WSNs, we change the transmission schemes, the sizes and transmission distances of clusters to investigate their effects on the cluster lifetimes. Furthermore, linear and uniform data aggregations are considered in our model. As a result, we analyze the cluster lifetimes in different situations and discuss the requirements on the sizes and transmission distances of clusters for equal lifetimes.

We propose a wireless-powered multihop transmission scheme using inter-node cooperation in a linear network topology. The proposed protocol determines the energy transfer time for each node to make the lifetime of the each node be equal in order to maximize the lifetime of the multihop path. To make the lifetime of each node the same, we apply the flocking algorithm which imitates the behavior of a bird flock flying at the same velocity, so that the lifetime of the nodes is averaged locally. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can maximize the lifetime of the multihop path by making all nodes have the same lifetime.

In this paper, we address a new robust optimization problem in a multiuser multiple-input single-output broadcasting system with simultaneous wireless information and power transmission, where a multi-antenna base station (BS) sends energy and information simultaneously to multiple users equipped with a single antenna. Assuming that perfect channel-state information (CSI) for all channels is not available at the BS, the uncertainty of the CSI is modeled by an Euclidean ball-shaped uncertainty set. To optimally design transmit beamforming weights and receive power splitting, an average total transmit power minimization problem is investigated subject to the individual harvested power constraint and the received signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio constraint at each user. Due to the channel uncertainty, the original problem becomes a homogeneous quadratically constrained quadratic problem, which is NP-hard. The original design problem is reformulated to a relaxed semidefinite program, and then two different approaches based on convex programming are proposed, which can be solved efficiently by the interior point algorithm. Numerical results are provided to validate the robustness of the proposed algorithms.
