무선 센서 네트워크에서의 모바일 싱크를 지원하기 위한 다양한 방법이 연구되어져왔다. 이러한 연구 중에서 에너지 효율과 링크효율을 최 우선시 하는 멀티패스 라우팅 방안은 가장 중요시되는 연구 분야중 하나이며 여러 연구방안이 진행되어져왔다. 그런 기존방안은 이동하는 싱크에 따라 효율적으로 노드선택을 진행함에 있어 에너지와 링크효율 정보 기반에 따른 최선의 선택을 이루지 못하고 있음에 따라 본 논문은 기존 방안과는 달리 쓰래쉬 홀드 설정을 통하여 최적의 노드 선택을 이루며 멀티패스를 생성하는 방안을 제시한다.

Previous research on sensor networks mainly focused on efficient transmission of data from sensors to fixed sink nodes. Recently there has been active research on mobile sink nodes, but the re-search of an environment where both fixed sink nodes and mobile sinks are present at the same time is rather scarce. This paper proposes a technique for context gathering by mobile devices with the sink functionality added through fixed sinks under a previously built, cluster based multi hop sensor network environment. To this end, clustering of mobile devices were done based on the fixed sinks of a previously built sensor network, and by using appropriate fixed sinks, context gathering was made possible. By mathematical comparison with TTDD routing protocol, which was proposed for mobile sinks, it was conformed that performance increases in energy with the number of mobile sinks, and with the number of movements by mobile devices.

본 논문에서는 센서 네트워크에서 수명을 늘리기 위한 기존의 통신 프로토콜 중에서 모바일 에이전트가 있는 환경에서 전체 네트워크 트래픽 량을 줄여 더욱더 수명을 늘리기 위해서 클러스터를 도입한다. 고정된 위치에서 싱크가 데이터를 수집할 경우 싱크 한 홉 내에 있는 노드들이 에너지를 빨리 쓰기 때문에 네트워크 파티션이 일어나기 쉽다. 이를 해결하기 위해 모바일 에이전트를 이용하여 네트워크 수명을 연장하는 방법이 연구되었다. 하지만, 모바일 에이전트가 이동을 하게 되면 전체 네트워크의 트래픽 양이 많아진다. 늘어난 트래픽을 줄이기 위해 모바일 에이전트가 있을 때 클러스터링의 성능을 분석하고 에너지 효율적인 클러스터 방법에 대해서 제안한다.

The PULSE protocol can greatly reduce power consumption using a node's sleep state. But this protocol does not consider movement of a sink node in a sensor network. In the mobile sensor network a routing protocol must recover path error by movement of a sink node as quickly as possible. Therefore we have to achieve fast path recovery and power saving to support movement of a sink node in a sensor network. This paper proposes the Mobile PULSE protocol which is a improved routing protocol for a mobile sink node. And we evaluate Mobile PULSE and show that the Mobile PULSE reduces the recovery time about 40% compared with original PULSE protocol. Mobile PULSE increases energy consumption than PULSE as a maximum of 0.8%, which means Mobile PULSE is similar to PULSE in energy consumption. This paper shows mobile PULSE's capability in the mobile sensor network through evaluation of path recovery time and power consumption.

In this paper, we propose a novel method for path setup that optimizes energy consumptions for wireless sensor network. Existing studies usually generate paths according to Random way point approach so that it requires unnecessary energy consumptions for estimating location of the mobile sink node and transmission paths of packets. To address this problem, we propose a method that creates paths for mobile sink node using the Hilbert curve. Moreover, our method adjusts the path of the mobile sink node according to the density of sensor nodes to minimize data transmission delay. In our experiments, the proposed method outperforms existing work such as TTDD and CBPER by up to 50 times in terms of energy efficiency.

분산 센서 네트워크에 대한 연구는 정보 융합 방법론상에서 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존의 센서 네트워크에서 정보의 융합을 위한 데이터의 수집은 센서 노드가 싱크 노드로 수집된 데이터를 전송함으로써 이루어지며 싱크 노드로 수집된 데이터는 어플리케이션에 의해 활용된다. 이때 여러 센서 노드가 어플리케이션에 필요한 데이터를 중복적으로 수집할 경우 중복된 데이터를 싱크노드로 전송하는데 있어 불필요한 에너지를 소모하게 된다. 이는 결국 전체적인 센서 네트워크의 수명을 감소시키는 원인이 된다. 이러한 문제는 어플리케이션에 따라 요구하는 데이터만을 선택적으로 수집함으로써 해결할 수 있다. 이러한 과정을 수행하기 위해 각 센서 노드가 어플리케이션의 요구사항에 맞도록 데이터 중복성에 대한 처리과정을 수반해야한다. 그러나 일반적으로 센서 노드는 자원이 한정이 되어있기 때문에 다양한 어플리케이션의 요구에 따른 중복성 처리 프로세스를 모두 가지고 있을 수는 없다. 따라서 모바일 에이전트를 활용하여 데이터의 중복성 문제를 해결할 수 있다. 또한 센서 네트워크에서 고려되는 에너지 효율, 네트워크 대역폭 문제를 해결할 수 있으며 시스템 확장성이 용이하다.

Wireless sensor networks have been researched to gather data about events on sensor fields from sources at sinks. Multipath routing is one of attractive approaches to reliably send data against the problem of frequent breakages on paths from sources to sinks due to node and link failures. As mobile events such as humans, animals, and vehicles are considered, sources may be continuously generated according to the movement of the mobile event. Thus, mobile events provide new challenging issue in multipath routing. However, the research on multipath routing mainly focus on both efficient multipath construction from sources to static sinks and fast multipath reconstruction against path breakages. Accordingly, the previous multipath routing protocols request each source continuously generated by a mobile event to construct individual multipath from the source to sinks. This induces the increase of multipath construction cost in the previous protocols in proportion to the number of source. Therefore, we propose efficient multipath routing protocol for supporting continuous sources generated by mobile events. In the proposed protocol, new source efficiently reconstructs its multipath by exploiting the existing multipath of previous sources. To do this, the proposed protocol selects one among three reconstruction methods: a local reconstruction, a global partial one, and a global full one. For a selection decision, we provide an analytical energy consumption cost model that calculates the summation of both the multipath reconstruction cost and the data forwarding cost. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol has better performance than the previous protocol to provide multipath routing for mobile events.

Mobile Wireless Sensor Network is an organized collection of sensor nodes and mobile sink nodes, in which the sensor node transmits the signal to the sink node. In real environment, there are many cases in which sinks have mobility caused by the people, the vehicle and etc. Since all nodes in the sensor networks have limited energy, many researches have been done in order to prolong the lifetime of the entire network. In this paper we propose Dynamic Local Update-based Routing Protocol(D-LURP) that prolong the lifetime of the entire network to efficiently maintain frequent location update of mobile sink static sensor nodes in Mobile WSNs. When the sink node moves out of the local broadcasting area the proposed D-LURP configures dynamically the local update area consisted of the new local broadcasting area and the previous dissemination node(DN) and find the path between the DN and the sink node, instead of processing a new discovering path like LURP. In this way the processing of broadcasting sink node's location information in the entire network will be omitted. and thus less energy will be consumpted. We compare the performances of the proposed scheme and existing Protocols.
