A Routing Optimization Based on Ant Colony for Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs)

چکیده
Routing process in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) has its own challenges to pass multimedia applications from source nodes to a sink. The WMSNs have specific characteristics consisting of multihop network, restricted bandwidth, and limited power resources in the WMSNs. Additionally, multimedia applications require specific Quality of Service (QoS). This paper proposes a routing optimization based on the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) for multimedia transmission in the WMSNs. The routing optimization can deliver multimedia data within an average throughput of 164.65 kbps and provide better QoS than DSDV and AODV routing protocols.

متن کاملA Fuzzy Based Approach for Rate Control in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks
Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) undergo congestion when a link (or a node) becomes overpopulated in terms of incoming packets. In WMSNs this happens especially in upstream nodes where all incoming packets meet and directed to the sink node. Congestion in networks, if not handled properly, might lead to congestion collapse which deteriorates the quality of service (QoS). Therefore, i...
