Uneven deployment and environment constraint leads to the formation of a spatially separated wireless sensor network (SS-WSN). Most of the traditional WSN architectures consist of static nodes that are densely deployed over a sensing area and are fully connected. SS-WSN is a group of disjoint subnetworks where connectivity is generally maintained by energy rich mobile nodes (ERMN), which roam about from one subnetwork to another. We propose an algorithm whereby the mobility of ERMN helps in distributing the geo message opportunistically in the region of interest. The routing consists of two phases: (1) transmission of the geo message from the …

Wireless sensor networks have multiple applications in intelligent environment and structural monitoring. The major challenge in wireless sensor networks is the power constraint. This paper deals with minimizing the energy utilization of wireless sensor nodes and maximizing their overall life span. The objective of our proposed scheme is to find a method for grouping sensors into the maximum number of distinct sensor cover sets to totally monitor the required area. This problem can be solved by using the disjoint cover set problem. Present optimization techniques take much time and deliver unsatisfactory results in large-scale networks. This paper proposes a technique …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper presents a seamless wireless extension approach to a KNX-based home automation system. The system consists of gateway and switch units specifically designed for this purpose. The gateway acts as the coordinator of the wireless network and a bridge between wireless and KNX networks. Switch units can be operated by a power outlet or battery. With the proposed architecture, it is possible to extend functionality of the KNX to wireless nodes, which consume very low power when they are operated by battery. Experimental results show that a simple yet efficient wireless extension to the KNX system is possible by …

Control Of Soil Moisture With Radio Frequency In A Photovoltaic-Powered Drip Irrigation System, Mahi̇r Dursun, Semi̇h Özden
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Solar-powered irrigation systems are becoming increasingly widespread. However, the initial setup costs of these systems are very high. To reduce these costs, both the energy usage and the prevention of losses from irrigation systems are very important. In this study, a drip irrigation control system of 1000 dwarf cherry trees was controlled using soil moisture sensors in order to prevent excessive water consumption and energy losses in a solar-powered irrigation system. The control system comprises units that are energized with solar panels, and the flow of information is implemented via radio frequency. Thus, by removing the cables that create difficulties …

Eetbr: Energy Efficient Token-Based Routing For Wireless Sensor Networks, Taner Çevi̇k, Abdül Hali̇m Zai̇m
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The most significant drawback of wireless sensor networks is energy scarcity. As there is an increasing need for operating these networks for relatively long times, energy saving becomes the key challenge in the design of the architectures and protocols for sensor networks. Therefore, several research studies have been performed for making contributions to the analysis of this energy shortage problem. Most of these research activities have been focused on finding solutions for the energy consumption of the communication unit, which is the dominant energy dissipating component of the sensor nodes. In this paper, a novel, token-based routing protocol adapted with …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
As the usage and development of wireless sensor networks increases, problems related to these networks are being discovered. Dynamic deployment is one of the main issues that directly affect the performance of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, an artificial bee colony algorithm is applied to the dynamic deployment of mobile sensor networks to gain better performance by trying to increase the coverage area of the network. The good performance of the algorithm shows that it can be utilized in the dynamic deployment of wireless sensor networks.
