태양 에너지 수집형 무선 센서 네트워크는 지속해서 에너지를 수집할 수 있어 배터리 기반 센서 네트워크의 에너지 제약 문제를 완화할 수 있지만, 고정된 싱크의 사용으로 싱크 주변에 존재하는 노드들이 상대적으로 에너지 소비가 증가하는 문제, 즉 에너지 사용 불균형 문제는 해결하지 못한다. 최근의 연구에서는 클러스터링을 기반으로 한 모바일 싱크를 도입하여 이를 해결하고자 했지만, 클러스터 헤드 및 그 주변 노드들의 에너지 부담은 여전히 존재한다. 한편, 무선 전력 전송 기술 발전에 따라 무선 센서 네트워크에서 모바일 싱크를 이용한 무선 전력 전송의 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 무선 전력 전송이 가능한 모바일 싱크와 효율적인 클러스터링 기법(클러스터 헤드 선출 포함)을 이용하여 에너지 불균형 문제를 최소화하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 클러스터 헤드 및 헤드 주변 노드의 에너지 핫 스팟이 완화됨으로, 전체 네트워크의 정전 노드들이 감소하고 수집된 데이터양이 증가한 것을 성능평가를 통해 확인할 수 있다.

Ad­hoc망은 기존 유선 및 무선망과 같이 안정된(고정된) 하부구조를 필요로 하지 않는 무선 단말들의 그룹으로 구성된 네트워크이다. 현재 라우팅을 위해 제시된 on­demand 방식의 라우팅 프로토콜은 이동성에 따른 신뢰도를 높이기 위해 flooding을 수행하는데, 이동성이 커질 경우 경로발견과 이를 유지하기 위한 오버 헤드가 크다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 각 노드의 다양한 이동성향이 설정된 노드간의 경로유지에 영향을 적게 미치도록 하고 오버헤드가 적은 경로설정을 위한 N­hop기반의 효율적인 flooding 기법을 제안하고 노드 이동성에 따른 최적의 N값을 제시한다.

Mobile Ad Hoc Network is easy to be attacked because nodes are distributed not network based infrastructure. Intrusion detection system perceives the trust values of neighboring nodes and receives inspection on local security of nodes and observation ability. This study applied clustering mechanism to reduce overhead in intrusion detection. And, in order to measure the trust values, it associates the trust information cluster head received from member nodes with its own value and evaluates the trust of neighboring nodes. Secure data transmission is received by proposed concept because the trust of nodes on network is achieved accurately.

Mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET) consists of a node that has mobility. In MANET, the node has routing, the node builds a network of their own, no dependent infrastructure. Topology are exchanged due to node mobility in MANET. For reducing the change of topology, hierarchical network algorithm has been investigated. In hierarchical network, cluster member node communicates through cluster head node. When the load-balancing of cluster head node is exceed, assigned cluster member node can't communicate with base station. To solve this problem, we proposed Load Tolerance algorithm. The proposed algorithm, when cluster member node can't send a message by cluster head node that exceed load-balancing, then the cluster member node sends a message by selected load tolerance node. Through a simulation, the proposed algorithm improves packet delivery ratio in cluster routing.

In wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes are deployed in a remote, harsh environment. When the power of the sensor node is consumed in such a network, the sensor nodes become useless together with the deterioration of the quality and performance of the sensor network which may save human life. Although many clustering protocols have been proposed to improve the energy consumption and extend the life of the sensor network, most of the previous studies have shown that the overhead of the cluster head is quite large. It is important to design a routing protocol that minimizes the energy consumption of each node and maximizes the network lifetime because of the power limitations of the sensor nodes and the overhead of the cluster heads. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an efficient clustering scheme that reduces the burden of cluster heads, minimizes energy consumption, and uses algorithms that maximize network lifetime. Simulation results show that the proposed clustering scheme improves the energy balance and prolongs the network life when compared with similar techniques.

For a wireless ad-hoc network, event routing algorithm of the publish/subscribe system is especially important for the performance of the system because of the dynamic characteristic and constraint network of its own. In this paper, we propose a new hybrid event routing algorithm. TopSim for efficient publish/subscribe system on the wireless ad-hoc network by extending the ShopParent algorithm by considering not only network overheads to choose a Parent of the publish/subscribe tree, but also topic similarity which is closeness of subscriptions. Our evaluation shows our proposed TopSim performs better for the case where a new joining node subscribed to the multiple topics and there is a node among Parent candidate nodes who subscribe to the ones in the list of multiple topics (related topics).

In wireless sensor networks, clustering protocol such as LEACH is an efficient method to increase whole networks lifetime. However, this protocol result in high energy consumption at the cluster head node. Hence, this protocol must changes the cluster formation and cluster head node in each round to prolong the network lifetime. But this method also causes a high amount of energy consumption during the set-up process of cluster formation. In order to improve energy efficiency, in this paper, we propose a new cluster formation algorithm. In this algorithm, we define a intra cluster as the sensor nodes within close proximity of each other. In a intra cluster, a node senses and transmits data at a time on the round-robin basis. In a view of whole network, intra cluster is treated as one node. During the setup phase of a round, intra clusters are formed first and then they are re-clustered(network cluster) by choosing cluster-heads(intra clusters). In the intra cluster with a cluster-head, every member node plays the role of cluster-head on the round-robin basis. Hence, we can lengthen periodic round by a factor of intra cluster size. Also, in the steady-state phase, a node in each intra cluster senses and transmits data to its cluster-head of network cluster on the round-robin basis. As a result of analysis and comparison, our scheme reduces energy consumption of nodes, and improve the efficiency of communications in sensor networks compared with current clustering methods.

To establish the equitable distribution of total energy load, a representative cluster based routing protocol LEACH selects cluster heads randomly in accordance with the pre-determined probability every round. But because the current energy level of sensor nodes is not considered, if a sensor node which has little residual energy is elected as a cluster head, it can not live to fulfil the role of cluster head which has big energy load. As a result, the first time of death of a node is quickened and the service quality of WSN gets worse. In this regard we propose a new routing method that, by considering the current energy of a cluster head and the distance between cluster heads and a base station, selects the sub cluster head for saving the energy of a cluster head. Simulation results show that the first time of death of a node prolongs, more data arrive at the base station and the service quality of WSN improves.

Routing through a backbone, which is responsible for performing and managing multipoint communication, reduces the communication overhead and overall energy consumption in wireless sensor networks. However, the backbone nodes will need extra functionality and therefore consume more energy compared to the other nodes. The power consumption imbalance among sensor nodes may cause a network partition and failures where the transmission from some sensors to the sink node could be blocked. Hence optimal construction of the backbone is one of the pivotal problems in sensor network applications and can drastically affect the network's communication energy dissipation. In this paper a distributed algorithm is proposed to generate backbone trees through robust multi-hop clusters in wireless sensor networks. The main objective is to form a properly designed backbone through multi-hop clusters by considering energy level and degree of each node. Our improved cluster head selection method ensures that energy is consumed evenly among the nodes in the network, thereby increasing the network lifetime. Comprehensive computer simulations have indicated that the newly proposed scheme gives approximately 10.36% and 24.05% improvements in the performances related to the residual energy level and the degree of the cluster heads respectively and also prolongs the network lifetime.
