Query Dissemination with Predictable Reachability and Energy Usage in Sensor Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Energy-efficient query dissemination plays an important role for the lifetime of sensor networks. In this work, we consider probabilistic flooding for query dissemination and develop an analytical framework which enables the base station to predict the energy consumed and the nodes reached according to the rebroadcast probability. Furthermore, we devise a topology discovery protocol that collects the structural information required for the framework. Our analysis shows that the energy savings exceed the energy spent to obtain the required information after a small number of query disseminations in realistic settings. We verified our results both with simulations and experiments using the SUN Spot nodes.

EEQR: An Energy Efficient Query-Based Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks
Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is a very challenging task due to the large number of nodes, their mobility and lack of proper infrastructure. Since the sensors are battery powered devices, energy efficiency is considered as one of the main factors in designing routing protocols in WSNs. Most of energy-aware routing protocols are mere energy savers that attempt to decrease the energy...

Possible applications for sensor networks include data collection and environment monitoring. For those, the sensor network can be regarded as a distributed database, the attributes measured by sensors being its data tuples. In order to query this distributed database, communication protocols must deliver the query to as many sensors as possible to improve query response quality. A trade-off be...
