Tapu: Test And Pick Up-Based $K$-Connectivity Restoration Algorithm For Wireless Sensor Networks, Vahi̇d Khali̇lpour Akram, Orhan Dağdevi̇ren
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A $k$-connected wireless sensor network remains connected if any $k$-1 arbitrary nodes stop working. The aim of movement-assisted $k$-connectivity restoration is to preserve the $k$-connectivity of a network by moving the nodes to the necessary positions after possible failures in nodes. This paper proposes an algorithm named TAPU for $k$-connectivity restoration that guarantees the optimal movement cost. Our algorithm improves the time and space complexities of the previous approach (MCCR) in both best and worst cases. In the proposed algorithm, the nodes are classified into safe and unsafe groups. Failures of safe nodes do not change the $k$ value of …

Fires generally occur due to human carelessness and the change in environmental conditions. The uncontrolled fire results in death incidents of humans and animals as well as severe threats to the ecosystem. The preservation of the natural environment is important. The wireless sensor networks, widely used in different monitoring applications, is used in this work. For fire detection, we use flame, smoke, temperature, humidity, and light intensity sensors in our proposed network node which is low-cost, reduced-size, and power-efficient. The experiments are performed in a well-controlled real-time environment. The proposed node transmits the sensed data to the central node. The …

In recent years, the use of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has increased and there have been significant improvements in this field. Especially with smarter, cheaper, and smaller sensor nodes, various kinds of information can be detected and collected in different environments and under different conditions. WSNs have thus been used in many applications such as military, surveillance, target tracking, home, medical, and environmental applications. As the popularity of WSNs increases, problems related to these networks are being realized. The dynamic deployment problem is one of the main challenges that have a direct effect on the performance of WSNs. In this …

Wireless sensors, which are smaller and cheaper, have started being used in many different applications. Military applications, health care and industrial monitoring, environmental applications, smart grids, and vehicular ad-hoc networks are some of the best known applications of wireless sensors. In some applications, especially military, environmental, and health care applications, it is required that the communication between sensor nodes be encrypted to achieve privacy and confidentiality. In this work, some modifications have been made to the ad-hoc on-demand distance vector routing protocol, mostly preferred in wireless sensor networks, to make data communications more reliable. The proposed routing protocol is shown …

Increasing Bluetooth Low Energy Communication Efficiency By Presetting Protocol Parameters, Dusan Hatvani, Dominik Macko
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Standard protocols are important regarding the compatibility of devices provided by different vendors. However, specific applications have various requirements and do not always need all features offered by standard protocols, making them inefficient. This paper focuses on standard Bluetooth Low Energy modifications, reducing control overhead for the intended healthcare application. Specifically, the connection establishment, device pairing, and connection parameter negotiations have been targeted. The simulation-based experiments showed over 20 times reduction of control-overhead time preceding a data transmission. It does not just directly increase the energy efficiency of communication; it also prolongs the time for sensor-based end devices to spend …

IETF 6TiSCH standard aims to create reliable, deterministic, and low-power networks by scheduling bandwidth resources in time and frequency domains. The main emphasis of 6TiSCH protocol is that it creates Internet of things (IoT) networks with a deterministic and controllable delay. However, many of its benefits are tied to the ability of the 6TiSCH scheduler to optimally distribute radio resources among wireless nodes which may not be possible when the number of frequency resources are limited and several other wireless technologies share the same frequency band (e.g., WiFi, Bluetooth and IEEE 802.15.4). Here the integration of a low-complexity directional antenna …
