Energy Efficient Routing Clustering Algorithms For Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks have come to the forefront of the scientific community recently and it consists of small nodes with sensing, Communications and computing capabilities. The Wireless Sensor Network Systems can be applied to monitor different environments. In WSN, sensor nodes play the most prominent role. These sensor nodes batteries are replacing or recharging is impossible, it is essential to find energy efficient routing algorithm. In this paper, we survey the features / characteristics and different well-know energy efficient cluster routing algorithms for WSNs have been classified and presented based on their characteristics.

Wireless Sensor Networks: Architecture, Issues and Research Challenges

“…Specific applications include habitat monitoring, object tracking, nuclear reactor control, fire detection, and traffic monitoring. Also, it can be used in the areas like [5][6][7][8][9] ; i. Area Monitoring: Area monitoring is a common application of WSNs.…”

Enhancing Lifespan and Energy Efficiency in Mobile Smart Dust Networks

“…MSDNs serve as exceptional instruments for applications in defense, disturbance detection, monitoring, and data collection from various structured environments. Additional applications such as location detection and personal health monitoring are facilitated by smart dust mobile networks [7][8][9][10].…”

“…In this study, a novel clustering approach for MSDNs, known as ERSCH (Effectual Remote Secured ClusterHeads), is proposed in conjunction with the LEACH method [12,13]. For the purpose of highlighting the different improvements achieved, ERSCH is divided into ERSCH1 and ERSCH2.…”
