In all these applications, energy usage is the determining factor in the performance of wireless sensor networks. Consequently, methods of data routing and transferring to the base station are very important because the sensor nodes run on battery power and the energy available for sensors is limited. In this paper we intend to propose a new protocol called Fair Efficient Location-based Gossiping (FELGossiping) to address the problems of Gossiping and its extensions. We show how our approach increases the network energy and as a result maximizes the network life time in comparison with its counterparts. In addition, we show that the energy is balanced (fairly) between nodes. Saving the nodes energy leads to an increase in the node life in the network, in comparison with the other protocols. Furthermore, the protocol reduces propagation delay and loss of packets.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel. Sens.

A dual-polari- zation coupled patch sensor, which is robust to environmental changes, was designed to operate at 2.45 GHz. It was attached to a Durian fruit for a period of days to measure the magnitude of mutual coupling corresponding mainly to the starch concentration of its pulp. Signal was transmitted from a sensor node, via tree nodes, to a master node that displays the variations occurring in the period. The maximum mutual coupling occurred at the maturity stage of 60% whereas the minimum occurred at 70%. These results demonstrate that this wireless sensor network can enable fruit growers to harvest their Durians at an appropriate time, providing a reliable quality control for export.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel.

Clustering is one of the routing techniques that have been using to minimize sensor nodes’ energy consumption during operation. In this paper, A Novel Clustering Algorithm for Energy Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks (ANCAEE) has been proposed. The algorithm achieves good performance in terms of minimizing energy consumption during data transmission and energy consumptions are distributed uniformly among all nodes. ANCAEE uses a new method of clusters formation and election of cluster heads. The algorithm ensures that a node transmits its data to the cluster head with a single hop transmission and cluster heads forward their data to the base station with multi-hop transmissions. Simulation results show that our approach consumes less energy and effectively extends network utilization.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel. Sens.

We then determine important sensor’s performance measures in terms of energy consumptions, average data delay and throughput. The novelty of this paper is in its development of a stochastic model in WSN with active/sleep feature and the explicit results obtained for above mentioned energy consumption and performance characteristics.

In the end the reduced energy of a radio wave causes the reduced transmitting length for communication, the long postponed communication and the frequent error. The subsea communication for the marine environment monitoring which must overcome the weak points of the RF wave and the most practical method for the marine sensor network realization is to use the acoustic wave method, but the energy consumption rate of the acoustic wave communication method is about 100 times greater than the one of the RF wave method. So, the power supply of the sensor node in the marine sensor network system is the most important interest field. In this study, the sample which consists of an acrylic elastomer(VHB4905 film from 3M), conductible carbon grease(from MG chemical) and electric wire for the basic study of an energy harvesting strategy and technique using EAP actuator was fabricated, and the conductible carbon grease was used for an electrode. The characteristics of the fabricated sample were analyzed through the experiment. We also mixed carbon grease with aluminum powder for conductibility improvement, and the effect of the mixed electrode was confirmed through the conductivity measurement.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel.

The model captures the space-time behavior of the underlying phenomenon being observed by the network. We present results regarding the size and spatial distribution of the regions of the network that sense statistically extreme values of the underlying phenomenon using the theory of extreme excursion regions. These results compliment many existing works in the literature that describe algorithms to reduce the data load, but lack an analytical approach to evaluate the size and spatial distribution of this load. We show that if only the statistically extreme data is transmitted in the network, then the data load can be significantly reduced. Finally, a simple performance model of a WSN is developed based on a collection of asynchronous M/M/1 servers that work in parallel. We derive several performance measures from this performance model. The presented results will be useful in the design of large scale sensor networks.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel.

When considering energy con- servation, routing protocols should also be designed to achieve fault tolerance in communications. Moreover, due to dynamic topology and random deployment, incorporating reliability into protocols for WSNs is very important. Hence, we propose an improved scalable clustering-based load balancing scheme (SCLB) in this paper. In SCLB scheme, scalability is achieved by dividing the network into overlapping multihop clusters each with its own cluster head node. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves longer network lifetime with desirable reliability at the initial state compare with the existing multihop load balancing approach.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel.

A traditional n-MOS Single-Pole Double-Throw (SPDT) switch has good performances but only for a single operating frequency. For multiple operating frequencies, to transmitting or receiving information through the multiple antennas systems, known as MIMO systems, it a new RF switch is required which should be capable of operating with multiple antennas and frequencies as well as minimizing signal distortions and power consumption. We already have proposed a Double-Pole Four-Throw (DP4T) RF switch and in this research article we are discussing a process for the characterization of the MOSFET with Virtual Instrumentation. The procedure to characterize oxide and conductor layers that are grown or deposited on semiconductors is by studying the characteristics of a MOS capacitor that is formed of the conductor (Metal)-insulator-semiconductor layers for the purpose of RF CMOS as a switch is presented. For a capacitor formed of Metal-silicon dioxide-silicon layers with a thick oxide measured opti-cally. Some of the calculated material parameters are away from the expected values. These errors might be due to several factors such as a possible offset capacitance of the probes due to improper contact with the wafer which is measured by using the LCR (Inductance-Capacitance-Resistance) meter with the help of Visual Engineering Environment Programming (VEE Pro, a Agilent product).","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel.

Tracking multiple targets is more challenging than tracking a single target in a wireless sensor network due to targets’ movement in different directions, targets’ speed variations and frequent connectivity failures of low powered sensor nodes. If all the low-powered sensor nodes are kept active in tracking multiple targets coming from different directions of the network, there is high probability of network failure due to wastage of power. It would be more realistic if the tracking area can be reduced so that less number of sensor nodes will be active and therefore, the network will consume less energy. Tracking area can be reduced by using the target’s kinematics. There is almost no method to track multiple targets based on targets’ kinematics. In our paper, we propose a distributed tracking method for tracking multiple targets considering targets’ kinematics. We simulate our method by a sensor network simulator OMNeT++ and empirical results state that our proposed methodology outperforms traditional tracking algorithms.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel.
