In spite of previous common assumptions about the incompatibility of public key cryptography (PKC) schemes with wireless sensor networks (WSNs), recent works have shown that they can be utilized for such networks in some manner. The major challenge of employing a PKC-based scheme in a wireless sensor network is posed by the resource limitations of the tiny sensors. Considering this sensor feature, in this paper we propose an efficient PKC-based security architecture with relatively lower resource requirements than those of previously proposed PKC schemes for WSN. In addition, our scheme aims to provide robust security in the network. Our security architecture comprises two basic components; a key handshaking scheme based on simple, linear operations and the derivation of a decryption key by a receiver node. Our architecture enables node-to-base-station and node-to-node secure communications. Analysis and simulation results show that our proposed architecture ensures a good level of security for network communications, and can be effectively implemented with the limited computational, memory, and energy budgets of current-generation sensor nodes.

In wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes are often deployed in large numbers in places that are difficult for humans to access. However, the energy of the sensor node is limited. Therefore, one of the most important considerations when designing routing protocols in wireless sensor networks is minimizing the energy consumption of each sensor node. When the energy of a wireless sensor node is exhausted, the node can no longer be used. Various protocols are being designed to minimize energy consumption and maintain long-term network life. Therefore, we proposed KOCED, an optimal cluster K-means algorithm that considers the distances between cluster centers, nodes, and residual energies. I would like to perform a performance evaluation on the KOCED protocol. This is a study for energy efficiency and validation. The purpose of this study is to present performance evaluation factors by comparing the K-means algorithm and the K-medoids algorithm, one of the recently introduced machine learning techniques, with the KOCED protocol.

기존 연구에서 에너지 소비의 효율성을 향상하기 위해 제시된 무선 센서 네트워크의 라우팅 기법은 다양하게 존재하지만 라우팅을 위해서는 자신의 위치 정보와 1 홉(hop) 거리에 인접한 주변 노드들의 위치 정보를 유지해야 한다. 그리고 BS 노드로 데이터를 전송하기 위하여 여러 노드를 경유하여 목적지까지 전송하는 다중 홉(Multi-hop) 전송 방식을 사용한다. 이러한 기법은 네트워크의 전체적인 에너지 소모와 센서 노드의 전력 소모를 발생시켜 효율적인 에너지 관리에 문제가 발생한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 센서 노드의 전파 범위와 RSSI를 이용하여 소스 노드와 거리 $d{\pm}{\alpha}$를 만족하는 BS 노드의 위치 기반 1-홉 라우팅 기법을 제안한다.

With the application of wireless sensor networks in the fields of ecological observation, defense military, architecture and urban management etc., the security problem is becoming more and more serious. Characteristics and constraint conditions of wireless sensor networks such as computing power, storage space and battery have brought huge challenges to protection research. Inspired by the danger theory in biological immune system, this paper proposes an intrusion detection model for wireless sensor networks. The model abstracts expressions of antigens and antibodies in wireless sensor networks, defines meanings and functions of danger signals and danger areas, and expounds the process of intrusion detection based on the danger theory. The model realizes the distributed deployment, and there is no need to arrange an instance at each sensor node. In addition, sensor nodes trigger danger signals according to their own environmental information, and do not need to communicate with other nodes, which saves resources. When danger is perceived, the model acquires the global knowledge through node cooperation, and can perform more accurate real-time intrusion detection. In this paper, the performance of the model is analyzed including complexity and efficiency, and experimental results show that the model has good detection performance and reduces energy consumption.

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.

A critical issue in applications involving networks of wireless sensors is their ability to synchronize, and mitigate the fading propagation channel effects. Especially when distributed 'slave' sensors (nodes) reach-back to communicate with the 'master' sensor (gateway), low power cooperative schemes are well motivated. Viewing each node as an antenna element in a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) multi-antenna system, we design pilot patterns to estimate the multiple carrier frequency offsets (CFO), and the multiple channels corresponding to each node-gateway link. Our novel pilot scheme consists of non-zero pilot symbols along with zeros, which separate nodes in a time division multiple access (TDMA) fashion, and lead to low complexity schemes because CFO and channel estimators per node are decoupled. The resulting training algorithm is not only suitable for wireless sensor networks, but also for synchronization and channel estimation of single- and multi-carrier MIMO systems. We investigate the performance of our estimators analytically, and with simulations.

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.

무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 네트워크를 구성하는 센서 노드들은 라우팅 및 센싱 역할을 함께 수행해야 하기 때문에 각 센서 노드들은 항상 에너지 부담을 가지고 있다. 이러한 무선 센서 네트워크에 사용되는 센서는 무인으로 동작 되거나 사람이 접근하기 힘든 환경에서 동작하는 경우가 대부분이다. 또한 다량의 센서를 배치하여 무선 센서 네트워크를 형성 하는 경우가 많아 센서 노드의 크기가 작아야 하고, 가격이 저렴해야 하므로 노드에 공급할 수 있는 전원의 양과 데이터 처리 능력에 제한이 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 센서 노드의 전력 소모를 줄이고, 망을 효율적으로 관리할 수 있는 알고리즘과 효율적인 라우팅 프로트콜을 제안하고, 제안한 알고리즘을 LEACH 프로토콜에 적용시켜 에너지 효율성을 검증하였다. Particle Sensor에서 이전 주기에 측정된 값과 현재 주기에 측정된 값을 비교하여 현재 측정된 값이 작거나 같으면 먼지가 감소하고 있다고 가정하고 다음 주기에 sleep모드를 설정해 주어 센서 노드의 에너지 소비를 줄여주는 알고리즘이다. 제안한 알고리즘의 시뮬레이션 결과를 보면 센서 노드의 에너지 소모를 향상시켜 주었고, LEACH 라우팅 프로토콜에 적용시킨 결과 네트워크의 수명을 향상 시켰다.

A sensor network is composed of a large number of sensor nodes that are densely deployed in a field. Each sensor performs a sensing task for detection specific events. After detecting this event, location information of the sensor node is very important. Range-based scheme of the proposed approaches typically achieve high accuracy on either node-to-node distances or angles, but this scheme have a drawback because all sensor nodes have the special hardware. On the other hand, range-free scheme provides economic advantage because of no needed hardware even if that leads to coarse positioning accuracy. In this paper, we propose a range-free localization algorithm without range information in wireless sensor networks. This is a range-free approach and uses a small number of anchor nodes and known sensor nodes. This paper develops a localization mechanism using the geometry conjecture (perpendicular bisector of a chord). The conjecture states that a perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the center of the circle.
