Safe path-finding is extremely necessary for multihop wireless systems such as Wireless Sensor Networks. Multihop wireless systems are more unprotected to safety outbreaks as associated to single-stage wireless networks. Cross-layer design production is a precise significant character for wireless sensor Advanced security network is significant submissions. for the achievement of announcement among sensor nodes in wireless sensor network because the numbers composed is regularly less and the network is most vulnerable. Numerous Security methods have been suggested to deliver safety resolutions besides numerous threats to the Cross layer modification techniques in Wireless sensor networks. In this paper we overview the existing schemes for the security of cross-layer design in wireless sensor networks. The proposed Security model will provide more security between sensor nodes and the base station in wireless sensor network. Security is important for the success of the wireless sensor network because the data collected are often sensitive and the network is particularly vulnerable. In the cross-layer design, constraints are substituted between changed layers to protect the well-organized use of energy. In this paper, we propose a secure security model that is based on cross-layer design. It uses a cross layer optimization Machine Reproduction consequences confirm that our proposed safety model better in many situations and in unpromising violence-disposed to the situation.

Node power management is one of the key problems in wireless sensor networks. This paper proposes a new power management method by using genetic algorithm which has the characteristic of auto-adapted global optimization probability searching. Under the condition of connectivity between the nodes, this new method can calculate the optimum route link from the source node to the destination node of the entire wireless sensor network, thus reduces quantity of communication link nodes as well as entire network power. The simulation results indicated that the genetic algorithm can be applied perfectly in the nodes power management and effect of the energy conservation is obvious.

Profiling environmental parameter using a large number of spatially distributed wireless sensor network (WSN) NODEs is an extensive illustration of advanced modern technologies, but high power requirement for WSN NODEs limits the widespread deployment of these technologies. Currently, WSN NODEs are extensively powered up using batteries, but the battery has limitation of lifetime, power density, and environmental concerns. To overcome this issue, energy harvester (EH) is developed and presented in this paper. Solar-based EH has been identified as the most viable source of energy to be harvested for autonomous WSN NODEs. Besides, a novel chemical-based EH is reported as the potential secondary source for harvesting energy because of its uninterrupted availability. By integrating both solar-based EH and chemical-based EH, a hybrid energy harvester (HEH) is developed to power up WSN NODEs. Experimental results from the real-time deployment shows that, besides supporting the daily operation of WSN NODE and Router, the developed HEH is capable of producing a surplus of 971 mA·hr equivalent energy to be stored inside the storage for NODE and 528.24 mA·hr equivalent energy for Router, which is significantly enough for perpetual operation of autonomous WSN NODEs used in environmental parameter profiling.

Herein, an Internet of Things (IoT) system with remote reconfigurable wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes is presented and its application to measure group work activity in a classroom is discussed. This IoT system consists of wiki pages, bots, (defined as remotely controlled devices), gateways, and remotely reconfigurable WSN Nodes. The bots/gateways and WSN nodes of the IoT system are controlled by scripts written on wiki pages that are read by the bot/gateways, which then forward the commands contained in the scripts to the WSN nodes. Each WSN node then executes the commands, obtains the resulting sensor values, and then returns those values to the bot/gateways. The bot/gateways relay the values and write them onto the wiki page. Each WSN node is flexible and reconfigurable because its behavior can be changed by the script commands written onto the wiki page. Using this IoT system, we created a measurement system to evaluate activity levels of group work in a classroom. After developing the measurement system, we found it was possible to adjust the sampling rate for obtaining sensor values simply by rewriting the script on the wiki page without directly manipulating the WSN.

Building modern Internet of Things (IoT) systems is associated with a number of challenges. One of the most significant among them is the need for wireless technology, which will serve to build connectivity between the individual components of this technology. In the larger cities of Bulgaria, measures to ensure low levels of harmful emissions, reduce noise levels, and ensure comfort in urban environments have been taken. LoRa technology shows more advantages in transmission distance and low energy consumption compared to other technologies. That is why this technology was chosen for the design of wireless sensor networks (WSN) for six cities in Bulgaria. These networks have the potential to be used in IoT configurations. Appropriate modules and devices for building WSN for cities in Bulgaria have been selected. It has been found that the greater number of nodes in the WSN leads to an increase in the average power consumed in the network. On the other hand, depending on the location of these nodes, the energy consumed may decrease. The performance of wireless sensor networks can be optimized by applying appropriate routing protocols, which are proposed in the available literature. The methodology for energy efficiency analysis of WSN can be used in the design of wireless sensor networks to determine the parameters of the environment, with the possibility of application in IoT.

Creating a suitable growing environment is necessary to ensure good plant growth in a plant factory, which requires wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to monitor the environment in real time. However, existing WSN clustered routing methods hardly take into account the network unreliability caused by varying link quality among nodes, resulting in reduced stability and accuracy of environmental monitoring. This study proposes a wireless sensor network system strategy for improving network reliability in large-scale reliable wireless sensor networks suitable for plant factory scenarios. Firstly, a hybrid wireless sensor network was designed and built based on Wi-Fi and ZigBee communication protocols. Secondly, a nonlinear link quality prediction model for plant factory scenarios was developed using a function fitting method, taking into account the interference and attenuation caused by the dense concentration of agricultural facilities and plants in plant factories on the wireless signal propagation. Finally, a network coverage optimization scheme was designed by combining a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and link quality prediction model, and a reliable cluster routing protocol was designed by combining K-means algorithm. The results indicated that the coefficient of determination (R2) for the prediction model was 0.9962. The impact of agricultural facilities and vegetation on link quality was most significant when the node height was 0.7 m. Under the optimal node deployment, the number of nodes was 33, and the network coverage rate (CR) reached 97.512%. Compared with the traditional clustered routing method, the wireless sensor network designed in this study is more applicable to the field of plant factories; it further enhances data transmission effectiveness and link quality, improves the reliability of the network, and realizes the load balancing of the internal transmission of the network, which in turn ensures the accuracy of environmental monitoring and the stability of the system.

The paper presents an innovative design for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) which can increase their performances in the precision agriculture (PA). The authors argue on the reasons why presently WSNs are not integrated in PA on a larger scale. To this end, the paper describes the state of art in WSNs used in PA, and develops the proposed solution on the basis of the identified conjectures. The conceived solution proves how nodes can have small dimensions without mitigating the communication range or energy autonomy. Small dimensions bring benefits also to costs and operations. Such results can be achieved by overcoming the misalignment between advances in unmanned agricultural vehicles (AVs) and advances in WSN. The fixed nodes and mobile nodes (AVs), cooperate to fulfil sensor and communication coverage. Endowing the WSN nodes only with necessary sensors together with an energy awareness communication algorithm adopted in resonance with PA requirements proves to be a new competitive approach. Some simulations to validate these concepts are also provided.

The single-channel wireless sensor networks (WSNs) exists the problem of low efficiency of monitoring data transmission, however the multi-channel WSNs exists the problem of communication collision caused by the sensor node’s wireless channel competition. The paper at first introduces the causes of the above problems and selects a reasonable wireless channel resources allocation method of the multi-channel WSNs. Then to solve these questions, the theory of compressive sensing and spectrum sensing are adopted to improve the existing multi-channel WSNs. Finally, a new sensor node of the multi-channel WSNs is designed based on the above improvement. By analyzing the monitoring data of the field test, the improved multi-channel WSNs could complete monitoring mission efficiently and accurately, meanwhile it reduced power consumption of the WSNs effectively.

Localization of mobile nodes in wireless sensor network gets more and more important, because many applications need to locate the source of incoming measurements as precise as possible. Many previous approaches to the location-estimation problem need know the theories and experiential signal propagation model and collect a large number of labeled samples. So, these approaches are coarse localization because of the inaccurate model, and to obtain such data requires great effort. In this paper, a semi-supervised manifold learning is used to estimate the locations of mobile nodes in a wireless sensor network. The algorithm is used to compute a subspace mapping function between the signal space and the physical space by using a small amount of labeled data and a large amount of unlabeled data. This mapping function can be used online to determine the location of mobile nodes in a sensor network based on the signals received. We use independent development nodes to setup the network in metallurgical industry environment, outdoor and indoor. Experimental results show that we can achieve a higher accuracy with much less calibration effort as compared with RADAR localization systems.

This WSN allows the farmer to collect data such as air temperature, air humidity, soil moisture. The WSN system consists of components: 02 wireless sensor nodes, 01 gateway, 01 cloud server and smartphone app. This WSN tested for data transmission in two zones: zone 1 (dense urban environments) at a distance of 500m and zone 2 (urban environments - less obstacles) at a distance of 1,500m and 1,700m. The data collected at different times of the day and updated every 15 minutes. The results show that the wireless sensor network system operates stably, data constantly updated to LoRa Server and there was not data packet loss.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) design to be efficient expects better energy optimization methods as nodes in WSN are operated only through batteries. In WSN, energy is a challenging one in the network during transmission of data. To overcome the energy issue in WSN, Taylor based Grey Wolf Optimization algorithm proposed, which is the integration of the Taylor series with Grey Wolf Optimization approach finding optimal hops to accomplish multi-hop routing. This paper shows the multiple objective-based approaches developed to achieve secure energyaware multi-hop routing. Moreover, secure routing is to conserve energy efficiently during routing. The proposed method achieves 23.8% of energy, 75% of Packet Delivery Ratio, 35.8% of delay, 53.2% of network lifetime, and 84.8% of scalability.

Wireless sensor networks consist of a large number of sensor nodes with limited battery power, and how to use energy of sensor nodes more efficiently to extend the lifetime of networks is a primary goal in the design of wireless sensor networks. Data aggregation can reduce the traffic in network by utilizing the abilities of local computation and storage of sensor nodes. In this paper, we propose a novel data aggregation scheme based on wavelet-entropy (DAWE in short) for wireless sensor networks. Firstly, we use multi-scale wavelet transforms to spread signals in multi-scale range, and then aggregate information using wavelet-entropy discriminance theorem in cluster members and cluster heads with LEACH clustering algorithm to reduce transmitting packets. Finally, we evaluate the performance of proposed data aggregation based on wavelet- entropy scheme by simulations.

A Markov based unified model for energy harvesting nodes in wireless sensor networks is proposed. Using the presented model, the probability of event loss due to energy run out as well as an analytical vulnerability metric, namely average time to energy run-out, are derived. The results provide insight into the performance of energy harvesting nodes in wireless sensor networks as well as design requirements for such nodes. The proposed vulnerability metric can be used in the various harvesting aware techniques at different protocol layers.

This paper is a performance survey on the residual energy of nodes in a wireless sensor network (WSN). Wireless sensor nodes are limited in application due to constraints in energy of nodes’ battery and addressing the problem of energy management is essential to lengthen the life of a deployed network of wireless sensors. In the method used, Sensor nodes were equally distributed on the complete border of the network field. An exclusive cluster, six hierarchical, and eighteen hierarchical clusters were formed based on even partition of the border of the network field. The choice of Cluster Head (CH) within each cluster formed was based on selection of a sensor node with minimal transmission distance to the Base Station. A comparison of the various hierarchical scenarios was simulated in MATLAB. The mean residue energies (MREs) after the network lifetime are 3%, 52%, and 35% of the initial node energy for single, six and eighteen hierarchical clusters respectively. The residual energies of sensor nodes above the recorded MREs were taken on a class interval of 50’s of the node identity (nid) and respective averages of residual energies of sensor nodes (AEr) of each selected class interval were evaluated. Based on the result, certain categories of sensor nodes at a section of the network field indicated that the battery energy of the affected nodes was not maximally utilized thereby leading to enormous residual energy. It was concluded that the residual energy of nodes in a WSN could be optimized to extend the lifetime.
