In a plethora of IoT ‐ WSNs applications, the IoT nodes are essential equipment to prolong the network lifetime with limited resources. Data similarity ‐ based clustering protocols exploit the temporal correlation among the neighbouring sensor nodes through the subset of data. In bendy supervision, IoT ‐ based Software Defined WSNs provide an optimistic resolution by allowing the control logic to be separated from the sensor nodes. The benefit of this SDN ‐ based IoT architecture, allows the unified control of the entire IoT network, making it easier to implement on ‐ demand network management protocols and applications. To this end, in this paper, we design a Multi ‐ hop Similarity ‐ based Clustering framework for IoT ‐ oriented Software ‐ Defined wireless sensor Networks (MSCSDNs). In particular, we construct data ‐ similar application ‐ aware clusters in order to minimise the communication overhead. Also, we adapt inter ‐ cluster and intra ‐ cluster multi ‐ hop communication using adaptive normalised least mean square and merged them with the proposed MSCSDN framework that helps prolong the network lifespan. The proposed framework is compared with the state ‐ of ‐ the ‐ art approaches in terms of network lifespan, stability period, instability period, report delay, report delivery, and cluster leader nodes generations. The MSCSDN achieves optimal data accuracy concerning the collected data.","PeriodicalId":51726,"journal":{"name":"IET Wireless Sensor Systems","volume":"33 1","pages":"67-80"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81275562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Monitoring of air quality in surface coal mines is an example of such applications. In coal mines, long-term exposure to inhalation of coal dust is harmful and can lead to coal workers' pneumoconiosis, which is a potentially disabling lung disease. Therefore, continual monitoring of air quality in coal mines is a must and vital and can potentially assist in preventing such diseases. Although, using and deploying of the existing low-cost and lightweight sensors can help to improve monitoring resolution in a much cost-effective manner, there are some concerns regarding the reliability of the collected data from these sensors. Therefore, low-cost PM sensors are required to initially be compared with the standard reference instruments and then be calibrated. In this study, three different types of low-cost, light-scattering-based widely available PM sensors (Shinyei PPD42NS, Sharp GP2Y1010AU0F and Laser SEN0177) are evaluated, compared, and calibrated with the reference instruments in a controlled environment as well as in a field experiment (surface coal mine).</p>","PeriodicalId":51726,"journal":{"name":"IET Wireless Sensor Systems","volume":"12 1","pages":"21-32"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/wss2.12034","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82077983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a reference, firstly, <i>p</i>-CSMA is evaluated with the consideration of under-noise-level communication. Then, the CCP protocol is proposed with the consideration of the speciality of the carrier sensing feature provided by the LoRa modem, which differs from the traditional energy level detection carrier sensing method. The CSTCT protocol resides at the CCP MAC layer which is light-weight and devised to further improve the overall throughput. The performance of the protocol stack is evaluated in simulations using various settings with predefined parameters that are drawn from experiments. The results show that our CCP MAC protocol and CSTCT transport protocol provide 10% higher throughput compared to the classic <i>p</i>-CSMA when the offered load is lower than 1.3 while the energy consumption is reduced by a factor of 2 and it remains latency limited.</p>","PeriodicalId":51726,"journal":{"name":"IET Wireless Sensor Systems","volume":"12 1","pages":"12-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/wss2.12033","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78747774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although research studies have been reported on typical interferences in the tracking process such as scale change, occlusion, distortion etc., some issues still exist for the target tracking algorithm based on UAV vision. This study exploited the features hidden in different colour spaces, and proposed a multi-feature multi-filter fusion tracking method that combines the HSV (hue, saturation and value) colour space with the histogram of oriented gradient (HOG) feature. The HSV colour space is proved to be able to discriminate objects under different conditions. The HOG of each HSV channel is utilised to train Kernelised correlation filters (KCF), respectively. The final tracking result is the candidate result with the biggest peak sidelobe ratio (PSR).

The construction of disjoint virtual backbone networks (DVBNs) is one of the ways this can be accomplished.

In the second phase of the proposal, dominator selection is initiated by the sink and then continued by each selected dominator. This occurs in rounds, with each round producing a distinct virtual backbone. The simulations show that multiple DVBNs can be produced with a good approximation ratio. Further, two optimisations are presented, one for a scanty network and the other for data dissemination. These are accomplished by changing the way in which the dominators are selected in the second phase of the algorithm. These optimisations are evaluated and a marked improvement is observed in node connectedness to the backbone and in hop count while keeping approximation ratios almost constant.</p>","PeriodicalId":51726,"journal":{"name":"IET Wireless Sensor Systems","volume":"11 5","pages":"219-232"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2021-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/wss2.12028","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73037019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
