A Multi-hop Uneven Hierarchical Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks Using a Controlled Mobile Sink

چکیده
Use of mobile devices for data collection in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has recently drawn much attention. Controlled sink mobility has been shown to be beneficial in energy conservation and lifetime prolongation. In this paper, we aim at studying the multi-hop uneven hierarchical routing protocol (MUHRP) using different mobile sink strategies. We first analyze the performance of multi-hop uneven hierarchical routing protocol with a fixed sink node. Then to measure the network performance, we use a mobile sink node, replacing the fixed sink node, to collect fused data packets from cluster heads. Network performance using our proposed protocol is validated through simulation experiments using MATLAB.

متن کاملAn Adaptive LEACH-based Clustering Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
LEACH is the most popular clastering algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, it has two main drawbacks, including random selection of cluster heads, and direct communication of cluster heads with the sink. This paper aims to introduce a new centralized cluster-based routing protocol named LEACH-AEC (LEACH with Adaptive Energy Consumption), which guarantees to generate balanced cl...

Energy constraint is the biggest challenge in wireless sensor networks because the power supply of each sensor node is a battery that is not rechargeable or replaceable due to the applications of these networks. One of the successful methods for saving energy in these networks is clustering. It has caused that cluster-based routing algorithms are successful routing algorithm for these networks....
متن کاملAn Energy Efficient Clustering Method using Bat Algorithm and Mobile Sink in Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of sensor nodes with limited energy. Energy efficiency is an important issue in WSNs as the sensor nodes are deployed in rugged and non-care areas and consume a lot of energy to send data to the central station or sink if they want to communicate directly with the sink. Recently, the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol is employed as a low-power, low-cost, and low rat...
