    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.80, No.3, pp. 4085-4110, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.052997 - 12 September 2024

    Abstract In recent advancements within wireless sensor networks (WSN), the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has emerged as a groundbreaking strategy for enhancing routing efficiency and overall network functionality. This research introduces a sophisticated framework, driven by computational intelligence, that merges clustering techniques with UAV mobility to refine routing strategies in WSNs. The proposed approach divides the sensor field into distinct sectors and implements a novel weighting system for the selection of cluster heads (CHs). This system is primarily aimed at reducing energy consumption through meticulously planned routing and path determination. Employing a greedy algorithm More >

    Muhammad Salman Qamar1,*, Ihsan ul Haq1, Amil Daraz2, Atif M. Alamri3, Salman A. AlQahtani4, Muhammad Fahad Munir1

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.79, No.2, pp. 2945-2970, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.050168 - 15 May 2024

    Abstract In pursuit of enhancing the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) energy efficiency and operational lifespan, this paper delves into the domain of energy-efficient routing protocols. In WSNs, the limited energy resources of Sensor Nodes (SNs) are a big challenge for ensuring their efficient and reliable operation. WSN data gathering involves the utilization of a mobile sink (MS) to mitigate the energy consumption problem through periodic network traversal. The mobile sink (MS) strategy minimizes energy consumption and latency by visiting the fewest nodes or pre-determined locations called rendezvous points (RPs) instead of all cluster heads (CHs). CHs… More >

    Reem Alkanhel1, Mohamed Abouhawwash2,3, S. N. Sangeethaa4, K. Venkatachalam5, Doaa Sami Khafaga6,*

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.35, No.2, pp. 2135-2149, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.028852 - 19 July 2022

    Abstract Real-time applications based on Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technologies are quickly increasing due to intelligent surroundings. Among the most significant resources in the WSN are battery power and security. Clustering strategies improve the power factor and secure the WSN environment. It takes more electricity to forward data in a WSN. Though numerous clustering methods have been developed to provide energy consumption, there is indeed a risk of unequal load balancing, resulting in a decrease in the network’s lifetime due to network inequalities and less security. These possibilities arise due to the cluster head’s limited life… More >

    An Efficient Path Planning Strategy in Mobile Sink Wireless Sensor Networks

    Najla Bagais*, Etimad Fadel, Amal Al-Mansour

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.73, No.1, pp. 1237-1267, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2022.026070 - 18 May 2022

    Abstract Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are considered the backbone of the Internet of Things (IoT), which enables sensor nodes (SNs) to achieve applications similarly to human intelligence. However, integrating a WSN with the IoT is challenging and causes issues that require careful exploration. Prolonging the lifetime of a network through appropriately utilising energy consumption is among the essential challenges due to the limited resources of SNs. Thus, recent research has examined mobile sinks (MSs), which have been introduced to improve the overall efficiency of WSNs. MSs bear the burden of data collection instead of consuming energy… More >

    Abstract Data collection using a mobile sink in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has received much attention in recent years owing to its potential to reduce the energy consumption of sensor nodes and thus enhancing the lifetime of the WSN. However, a critical issue of this approach is the latency of data to reach the base station. Although many data collection algorithms have been introduced in the literature to reduce delays in data delivery, their performances are affected by the flight trajectory taken by the mobile sink, which might not be optimized yet. This paper proposes… More >

    Optimal Coverage Multi-Path Scheduling Scheme with Multiple Mobile Sinks for WSNs

    Jin Wang1, 2, 3, Yu Gao2, Chang Zhou2, R. Simon Sherratt4, Lei Wang5, *

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.62, No.2, pp. 695-711, 2020, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2020.08674

    Abstract Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are usually formed with many tiny sensors which are randomly deployed within sensing field for target monitoring. These sensors can transmit their monitored data to the sink in a multi-hop communication manner. However, the ‘hot spots’ problem will be caused since nodes near sink will consume more energy during forwarding. Recently, mobile sink based technology provides an alternative solution for the long-distance communication and sensor nodes only need to use single hop communication to the mobile sink during data transmission. Even though it is difficult to consider many network metrics such… More >
