This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy self-sufficiency is one of the main bottlenecks in the implementation of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In this regard, energy harvesting (EH), the capture of energy from ambient sources of renewable energies, is a promising solution to the energy problem. However, the resulting randomness in the energy available to nodes forces the redesign of the communications protocols. Of specific interest here is to enable the delivery of sensed data to a fusion center in the EH-WSN. In this thesis, we consider two open problems of practical importance to the implementation of large-scale WSNs. First, we propose the notion of energy outage rate for a single link in WSN as a tool for online consideration of EH in such networks. Second, we propose and mathematically analyze an energy-aware, opportunistic routing protocol for large-scale multi-hop EH-WSNs. Our routing protocol significantly increases the rate of data delivery as compared to the state-of-the-art technologies.

Download or read book Energy Harvesting Aware Clustering based Routing Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks written by Md Anit Khan and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Routing protocols for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) play an important role in the performance of WSNs. They have an impact on, for instance, energy efficiency, reliable data transmission, channel utilization, and faster data delivery. Routing protocols can be broadly classified into two groups: i) Flat and ii) Hierarchical or clustering based techniques. The latter techniques are more energy efficient and scalable than the former. However, clustering techniques inherently create extra load on cluster heads and cluster heads (CHs) are more prone to breakdown. To address these issues and to support a sustainable environment, energy harvesting aware clusteringtechniques are evolving. However, there are only a limited number of these techniques available in the literature. Most are either single hop or location aware or not mostly self-organized. Therefore, they are not appropriate and economically viable for medium and large scale WSNs.In this dissertation, we have developed an innovative multi-hop energy harvesting aware clustering technique for location unaware WSNs, the Energy Harvesting Aware Energy Efficient (EHAEE) clustering scheme. EHAEE takes into account the intra-cluster communication cost, maximum storage capacity, and the dynamic values of load, gain rate, and remaining energy of a sensor node during the CHs selection and joining phases. This enables EHAEE to be more self-organized in the clustering process and makes it more suitable for non-uniform node distribution. The performance of EHAEE is evaluated through the network simulation models and is also compared and contrasted with another promising and widely accepted clustering technique, HEED, in the context of many different real-world network scenarios. Simulation results demonstrated that EHAEE increases network lifetime and reliability simultaneously. We have also conducted a statistical significance test using the t-test which exhibits a significant improvement of the performance of EHAEE over HEED.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy Management in Wireless Sensor Networks discusses this unavoidable issue in the application of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). To guarantee efficiency and durability in a network, the science must go beyond hardware solutions and seek alternative software solutions that allow for better data control from the source to delivery. Data transfer must obey different routing protocols, depending on the application type and network architecture. The correct protocol should allow for fluid information flow, as well as optimizing power consumption and resources - a challenge faced by dense networks. The topics covered in this book provide answers to these needs by introducing and exploring computer-based tools and protocol strategies for low power consumption and the implementation of routing mechanisms which include several levels of intervention, ranging from deployment to network operation.

Download or read book Load Balanced and Energy Aware Routing for Large Scale Wireless Sensor Networks written by Siddharth Harish Kamath and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are battery powered, and minimizing energy consumption without compromising the data quality is imperative for maximizing its lifetime. Traditional routing protocols are seen to suffer from a load imbalance problem that is caused by concentration of data traffic only on a few critical nodes, which is solely decided by link quality considerations. As a result, some critical nodes may deplete their batteries faster and stop working much earlier than desired, which ultimately compromises the network lifetime. This work involves design of a load balanced and energy aware routing algorithm which tries to distribute data traffic over all the critical nodes using real time traffic data as well as voltage based run-time energy monitoring to modify the routing metric. This will ensure that sensor nodes will choose routes with higher energy and lower data traffic which would balance the energy consumption in the nodes and improve the network lifetime. Laboratory results and simulations indicate significant increase in network lifetime in comparison to the traditional tree routing protocol.

Download or read book Energy Scavenging for Wireless Sensor Networks written by Shad Roundy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast reduction in size and power consumption of CMOS circuitry has led to a large research effort based around the vision of wireless sensor networks. The proposed networks will be comprised of thousands of small wireless nodes that operate in a multi-hop fashion, replacing long transmission distances with many low power, low cost wireless devices. The result will be the creation of an intelligent environment responding to its inhabitants and ambient conditions. Wireless devices currently being designed and built for use in such environments typically run on batteries. However, as the networks increase in number and the devices decrease in size, the replacement of depleted batteries will not be practical. The cost of replacing batteries in a few devices that make up a small network about once per year is modest. However, the cost of replacing thousands of devices in a single building annually, some of which are in areas difficult to access, is simply not practical. Another approach would be to use a battery that is large enough to last the entire lifetime of the wireless sensor device. However, a battery large enough to last the lifetime of the device would dominate the overall system size and cost, and thus is not very attractive. Alternative methods of powering the devices that will make up the wireless networks are desperately needed.
