Energy Efficient Sleep Awake Aware (EESAA) Intelligent Sensor Network Routing Protocol

Abstract: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), with growing applications in the environment which are not within human reach have been addressed tremendously in the recent past. For optimized working of network many routing algorithms have been proposed, mainly focusing energy efficiency, network lifetime, clustering processes. Considering homogeneity of network, we proposed Energy Efficient Sleep Awake Aware (EESAA) intelligent routing protocol for WSNs. In our proposed technique we evaluate and enhance certain issues like network stability, network lifetime and cluster head selection process. Utilizing the concept of characteristical pairing among sensor nodes energy utilization is optimized. Simulation results show that our proposed protocolnificantly improved the

Improving routing in sensor networks with heterogeneous sensor nodes

Abstract: Existing routing protocols mainly consider homogeneous sensor networks where all sensor nodes are the same. However, a homogeneous ad hoc network suffers from poor performance limit and scalability. Recent research has demonstrated its performance bottleneck both theoretically and through experiments. Furthermore, recently deployed sensor network systems are increasingly following heterogeneous designs, incorporating a mixture of sensors with widely varying capabilities. To improve network performance, we propose to form heterogeneous sensor networks by deploying a small number of powerful high-end sensors in addition to a large number of low-end sensors. We design an efficient cluster head relay (CHR) routing protocol for heterogeneous sensor networks. Our simulation experiments demonstrate that CHR performs better than two popular sensor network routing protocols.

Investigation of routing reliability of vehicular ad hoc networks

Abstract: In intelligent transportation systems, the cooperation between vehicles and the road side units is essential to bring these systems to fruition. Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are a promising technology to enable the communications among vehicles on one hand and between vehicles and road side units on the other hand. However, it is a challenging task to develop a reliable routing algorithm for VANETs due to the high mobility and the frequent changes of the network topology. Communication links are highly vulnerable to disconnection in VANETs; hence, the routing reliability of these ever-changing networks needs to be paid special attention. In this paper, we propose a new vehicular reliability model to facilitate the reliable routing in VANETs. The link reliability is defined as the probability that a direct communication link between two vehicles will stay continuously available over a specified time period. Furthermore, the link reliability value is accurately calculated using the location, direction and velocity information of vehicles along the road. We extend the well-known ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol to propose our reliable routing protocol AODV-R. Simulation results demonstrate that AODV-R outperforms significantly the AODV routing protocol in terms of better delivery ratio and less link failures while maintaining a reasonable routing control overhead.

E2HRC: An Energy-Efficient Heterogeneous Ring Clustering Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract: A heterogeneous ring domain communication topology with equal area in each ring is presented in this paper in an effort to solve the energy balance problem in original IPv6 routing protocol for low power and lossy networks (RPL). A new clustering algorithm and event-driven cluster head rotation mechanism are also proposed based on this topology. The clustering information announcement message and clustering acknowledgment message were designed according to RFC and original RPL message structure. An energy-efficient heterogeneous ring clustering (E2HRC) routing protocol for wireless sensor networks is then proposed and the corresponding routing algorithms and maintenance methods are established. Related messages are analyzed in detail. Experimental results show that in comparison against the original RPL, the E2HRC routing protocol more effectively balances wireless sensor network energy consumption, thus decreasing both node energy consumption and the number of control messages.
