OTSA: Optimized Time Synchronization Approach for Delay-based Energy Efficient Routing in WSN

Abstract

Abstract-Time Synchronization is one of the problems and still ignored problem in area of wireless sensor network (WSN). After reviewing the existing literatures, it is found that there are few studies that combinely address the problem of energy conservation, clustering, routing along with minimizing the errors due to time synchronization in sensor network. Therefore, this manuscript presents a delay-based routing which considers the propagation delay to formulate a mechanism for delay compensation in large scale wireless sensor network. The prime goal of this technique is to jointly address energy problems, time synchronization, and routing in wireless sensor network. The outcome of the proposed study was found to posse's minimized communication overhead, minimized synchronization errors, lower energy consumption, and reduced processing time when compared with the existing standards of time synchronization techniques.

Energy-aware strategy for data forwarding in IoT ecosystem

“…The experimental outcome exhibits that the presented technique maintains better network performances regarding node life and packet throughput. The study of Naggarathna and Mallapur [27][28][29][30][31] have addressed time synchronization and routing problem and presented delay-aware routing scheme to design optimal strategy that compensates delay factor in large scale WSN. Based on result analyis the presented study is found to be effective for reducing overhead, synchronization errors, and processing time when compared with the existing time synchronization methods.…”
