Abstract

In this paper, we constructed a sensor network environment where various sensors are used. Then, we evaluated the performance when this environment adopted existing clustering algorithms that are designed for only single type sensors network. In our experiments, we considered two different types of the networks. In the first, all nodes are equipped with identical sensors. In the second, all nodes are equipped with three different types of sensors. We measured performance variations of several clustering schemes in accordance with sensor data accuracy, sensor node resource depletion timing, amount of available energy, node isolation ratio, and network lifetime. According to our performance analysis, we proved that existing clustering algorithms are partially inefficient to maintain the various-sensor network. Consequently we suggest that a new algorithm is required to take aim at the various sensor network.

본 논문에서 우리는 다양한 센서를 사용하는 센서네트워크 환경을 구축하고 이를 단일 센서만을 고려하여 설계된 기존의 클러스터링 알고리즘에 적용하여 성능평가를 진행하였다. 실험에는 서로 다른 타입의 네트워크를 고려하였다. 첫 번째 네트워크는 모든 노드가 동일한 타입의 센서를 장착하는 환경이며, 두 번째는 3가지의 다종 센서를 사용한 네트워크 환경이다. 우리는 몇몇 클러스터링 기법을 데이터 정확성, 자원 고갈 노드 발생 시점, 네트워크 가용 에너지량, 고립 노드 비율, 그리고 네트워크 수명에 따라 성능 변화를 측정하였다. 성능 평가 결과에 의하여 기존 알고리즘은 다종 센서를 사용한 네트워크 유지에 비효율적이라는 사실을 입증하였다. 이에 따라 우리는 다종 센서를 고려한 클러스터링 알고리즘에 대한 연구가 요구됨을 제시하였다.
