Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are an emerging trend in wireless communication: more flexible, reliable and effective than the other competitive wireless technologies. In this paper, we present a generalized fuzzy logic and cluster based architecture based scheme for energy aware routing in wireless mesh networks. Here, we considered a cluster-based architecture for WMN, where a group of nodes i...

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a wireless network consists of base station and hundreds to thousands of small sensor nodes with sensing, computation, and wireless communications capabilities. Each sensor collects data from the monitored area and routes data back to the base station or sink. These sensor nodes have some constraints due to their limited energy, storage capacity and computing po...

Multi-path is favorite alternative for sensor networks, as it provides an easy mechanism to distribute traffic, as well as considerate fault tolerance. In this paper, a new clustering based multi path routing protocol namely ECRR (Energy efficient Cluster based Routing algorithm for improving Reliability) is proposed, which is a new routing algorithm and guarantees the achievement to required Q...

A wireless sensor network is a self-organized multi hop network that consists of a large number of sensor nodes. The efficiency of the sensor networks depends upon the routing protocol used. There are different routing protocols exists to extend the network lifetime by efficiently consuming the energy of the nodes. The nodes have limited energy resources and are battery powered. Therefore, desi...

Energy consumption is currently a key issue in research for future sensor networks. This paper presents a novel approach to sensor network routing based on energy consumption. The unique routing algorithm uses swarm intelligence, which is computationally efficient.

Main aim of the work is to design an energy efficient routing mechanism based on Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). In order to achieve energy efficient reliable transmission, routing here is divided into two parts. One is to discover the path based on Received Signal Strength (RSS) and residual energy and the other is to select based on minimum energy consumption. By eliminating the nodes that has ...

In wireless sensor network routing protocol design and energy savings optimization is important because most of times nodes are in moving condition and deployed in remote area. This work focuses on minimizing energy consumption and maximizing network lifetime for data relay in one-dimensional queue network. An Energy Saving via Opportunistic Routing (ENS_OR) algorithm is designed to ensure mini...
