Download or read book Coverage awareness Scheduling Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks written by Xin Fei and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coverage and energy issues are the fundamental problems which prevent the development of wireless sensor networks. In order to accurately evaluate the monitoring quality (coverage), one needs to model the interactive of sensors, phenomenons and the environment. Furthermore, in collaborative with scheduling algorithm and computer optimization, protocols can improve the overall monitoring quality and prolong the lifetime of network. This thesis is an investigation of coverage problem and its relative applications in the wireless sensor networks. We first discuss the realistic of current boolean sensing model and propose an irregular sensing model used to determine the coverage in the area with obstacles. We then investigate a joint problem of maintaining the monitoring quality and extending the lifetime of network by using scheduling schemes. Since the scheduling problem is NP hard, genetic algorithm and Markov decision process are used to determine an achievable optimal result for the joint problem of coverage-preserving and lifetime-prolong. In order to avoid the cost of centralized or distributed scheduling algorithms, a localized coverage-preserving scheduling algorithm is proposed by exploring the construction process of Voronoi diagram. Besides exploring the coverage characteristic in a static wireless sensor network, we investigate the coverage problem when the mobile elements are introduced into network. We consider the single-hop mobile data gathering problem with the energy efficiency and data freshness concerns in a wireless sensor network where the connectivity cannot be maintained. We first investigate the upper/lower bound of the covering time for a single collector to cover the monitoring area. Through our investigation we show that for a bounded rectangle area a hexagon walk could explore the area more efficiently than a random walk when the edges of area are known. We then propose a virtual force mobile model (VFM) in which the energy consumption for data transmission is modeled as a virtual elastic force and used to guide of mobile collectors to move to optimal positions for energy saving.

This book was released on 2005-08-08 with total page 893 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The availability of cheaper, faster, and more reliable electronic components has stimulated important advances in computing and communication technologies. Theoretical and algorithmic approaches that address key issues in sensor networks, ad hoc wireless networks, and peer-to-peer networks play a central role in the development of emerging network paradigms. Filling the need for a comprehensive reference on recent developments, Handbook on Theoretical and Algorithmic Aspects of Sensor, Ad Hoc Wireless, and Peer-to-Peer Networks explores two questions: What are the central technical issues in these SAP networks? What are the possible solutions/tools available to address these issues? The editor brings together information from different research disciplines to initiate a comprehensive technical discussion on theoretical and algorithmic approaches to three related fields: sensor networks, ad hoc wireless networks, and peer-to-peer networks. With chapters written by authorities from Motorola, Bell Lab, and Honeywell, the book examines the theoretical and algorithmic aspects of recent developments and highlights future research challenges. The book's coverage includes theoretical and algorithmic methods and tools such as optimization, computational geometry, graph theory, and combinatorics. Although many books have emerged recently in this area, none of them address all three fields in terms of common issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overview and Goals Wireless communication technologies are undergoing rapid advancements. The last few years have experienced a steep growth in research in the area of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In WSNs, communication takes place with the help of spatially distributedautonomoussensornodesequippedtosensespeci?cinformation. WSNs, especially the ones that have gained much popularity in the recent years, are, ty- cally, ad hoc in nature and they inherit many characteristics/features of wireless ad hoc networks such as the ability for infrastructure-less setup, minimal or no reliance on network planning, and the ability of the nodes to self-organize and self-con?gure without the involvement of a centralized network manager, router, access point, or a switch. These features help to set up WSNs fast in situations where there is no existing network setup or in times when setting up a ?xed infrastructure network is considered infeasible, for example, in times of emergency or during relief - erations. WSNs ?nd a variety of applications in both the military and the civilian population worldwide such as in cases of enemy intrusion in the battle?eld, object tracking, habitat monitoring, patient monitoring, ?re detection, and so on. Even though sensor networks have emerged to be attractive and they hold great promises for our future, there are several challenges that need to be addressed. Some of the well-known challenges are attributed to issues relating to coverage and deployment, scalability, quality-of-service, size, computational power, energy ef?ciency, and security.
