Communication is the main motive in any Networks whether it is Wireless Sensor Network, Ad-Hoc networks, Mobile Networks, Wired Networks, Local Area Network, Metropolitan Area Network, Wireless Area Network etc, hence it must be energy efficient. The main parameters for energy efficient communication are maximizing network lifetime, saving energy at the different nodes, sending the packets in m...

In this paper we specifically address the constraint of energy consumption related to wireless sensor networks deployed at remote regions where the geographical access is complicated and consequently the maintenance routines seldom occurs. This research proposes an energy management method for environmental monitoring at the Amazonian Basin, where the interval between maintenance routines is gr...

In MANETs, routing is a complex task as many factors affect the network performance. The major factors in routing are node mobility, node energy and congestion in the wireless bandwidth limited channel and battery operated nodes with dynamic topology. A new routing protocol is proposed (OPS-AODV) to select an optimal path in MANET by including the node energy and congestion status in route sele...

In order to prolong the network lifetime, energy-efficient protocols should be designed to adapt the characteristic of wireless sensor networks. Clustering Algorithm is a kind of key technique used to reduce energy consumption, which can increase network scalability and lifetime. This paper studies the performance of clustering algorithm in saving energy for heterogeneous wireless sensor networ...

The clustering Algorithm is a kind of key technique used to reduce energy consumption. It can increase the scalability and lifetime of the network. Energy-efficient clustering protocols should be designed for the characteristic of heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. We propose and evaluate a new distributed energy-efficient clustering scheme for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks, which...

In Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) all the nodes are mobile in nature having limited battery capacity that is called energy. Due to the dynamic behavior of network connection are not maintained for long time. All nodes in network are energy dependent and efficient energy utilization is one of the important issue in MANET. In this paper we proposed a new location based energy efficient scheme with...
