Energy-Efficient and Fault-Tolerant Positioning of Multiple Base Stations

Abstract: Abstract. As the nodes have limited battery power in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), energy efficiency and fault tolerance should be the two major issues in designing WSNs. However, previous studies on positioning base stations (BSs) in WSNs are focused on energy efficiency only. Yet, mission-critical applications like emergency medical care systems should be guaranteed continuous services considering fault tolerance. In this paper we propose to place multiple BSs considering not only energy efficiency but al… Show more

“…The following procedure is used to find the active link in the improved Q-MST algorithm (refer algorithm 2). (1) In all of the above-said models, the path loss is proportional to distance with some exponent, and exponent depends on the path model. Further, in all of the path loss models, the distance from receiver and transmitter is the key factor.…”

“…In the considered WSN, mainly four kinds of links exist namely sensor to sensor, sensor to CH, CH to CH, and CH to BS Based on the environment, sensor networks can be classified into various categories such as terrestrial WSN, underwater WSN, underground WSN, and mobile WSN. In some critical applications, such as critical-medical care [1], the sensor networks need to provide interminable services. Hence, enabling endless services in critical systems is only possible by fault tolerance.…”

“…David Jea, ArunSomasundaraet.al describes a mobile element to collect and carry data mechanically from a sensor network has many advantages over static multihop routing the network scalability and traffic may make a single mobile element insufficient [8]. The nodes near the base station relay the data from nodes that are farther away.…”
