An Efficient Energy Consumption Scheme Considering Coverage and Connectivity Problem in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

Many studies have been done to solve the coverage and connectivity problem of the sensor networks with the one-hop neighbor location information. In this paper we propose a simple scheme for the coverage and connectivity problem without any location information. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme with analytical models and simulations. The simulation results verify the proposed scheme provides both coverage and connectivity guarantees.

Performance Boost-Up by Using an Efficient Network Management Schemes in Wireless Sensor Network

“…Routing problem for sensor networks differs from that of traditional ad hoc wireless networks because sensor nodes can be constrained by limited battery power, communication bandwidth and processing power. [11].…”

“…The paper proposes an Efficient Power Management Protocol with Limited Cluster Size (EPMPLCS), which limits the size of clusters and avoids high energy consumption to enhance the network life [11]. EPMPLCS scheme based on two phases, setup phase and steady-state phase, both of these phases is well supported to fix high energy consumption issue.…”

“…Node scheduling scheme applied to resolve coverage and connectivity problems in wireless sensor networks [11]. This scheme performing operation based on three scheduling scheme for individual node they are: sensing, routing, and sleeping.…”
