An Efficient Routing Protocol Adopting Enhanced Cluster Formation Technique Accompanied by Fuzzy Logic for Maximizing Lifetime of WSN

Due to shortage of power source, energy is the significant concern part in Wireless Sensor Systems. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are currently used in numerous kinds of WSN simulators have been established to visually illustrate the coverage, energy consumption status and expected lifetime of WSN sensors. Most of the Researchers have proposed and develop routing algorithm to increase the network lifetime. Among them clustering is the best technique and it is well known for accomplishing energy effectiveness in WSNs. In this paper, Energy Efficient Multi-hop Routing Clustering Protocol (EEMRCP) based on Fuzzy K-Means and Centralized Mid-point Algorithm (FKM-CMA) is proposed for network lifetime improvement. An existing and frequently used algorithm is K-means algorithm in WSN. The main limitation of this K-means algorithm is random initial centroid selection. To improve K-means algorithm, a Midpoint method in initial centroid selection is used. This is named as FKM-CMA. There are two main considerations for cluster head selection in proposed work, one is it's residual energy, and another one is Euclidean distance used in basic Fuzzy K-means algorithm. Finally, Multi-hop communication is performed for transmitting the packets from CHs to Base Station depending on the distance between them. Furthermore, stimulated outcomes showed that the total network performance of the proposed approach is improved than the other existing approaches.

Now a day the usage of Self-Organizing Networks (SONs) is increasing, because of its broad application. Unlike common networks, the SONs have the capability of reconfiguration, whenever any defect occurs in the network. However, while routing in this network, the loss of data occurs due to its security lack. Hence many researchers have presented their research for providing secure routing in various SONs. However, the security is still an issue in the routing of SONs especially in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Here in this paper, a novel protocol for the secure routing of WSNs has developed. The proposed protocol is named as Trust-Distrust Protocol (TDP). As per the proposed protocol, the routing is done in four stages. The initial stage is topology management using the k-means algorithm. The second stage is Link Quality Appraisal (LQA), where the quality of every network node is evaluated. The third stage is grading, in which it is based on the LQA value and a grade point is allotted to every node in the network. In the last stage, the most secure path for the routing is determined based on the grade points. The proposed protocol is tested in one of the major kinds of SONs, like WSN using the NS2. By comparing with the existing LEACH protocol, the performance is evaluated. Ultimately the proposed protocol outperformed the performance of the existing routing protocol and suggested for rounding in SONs.

“…In Elliptic Curve Cryptography [7], we can take any two points on a curve, add them together to achieve the third point to make the authenticated data. It was proposed by Victor Miller and Neal Koblitz.…”

Abstract:Wireless Sensor Network has various security issues like authentication of sensor nodes and its power consumption. Therefore, we are focusing on evaluation and optimization of power consumption in wireless sensor networks using light weight cryptographic techniques. This research paper studies the certificateless cryptographic algorithms and hence develops an optimal algorithm for the same. The proposed algorithm is more efficient and secured by eliminating the concept of digital signature to make the light weight cryptographic algorithm using PKC and IBE. The simulation result shows that the proposed algorithm can achieve approximately 5-20% reduction of energy consumption with same level of security.
