Geometry-covering based localization for Jamming attack in wireless sensor networks by SUN Yan-qiang, WANG Xiao-dong, ZHOU Xing-ming

“…A geometry-covering based localization（GCL） algorithm was proposed with the purpose of localizing the jamming attacker in wireless sensor networks.The knowledge of the convex hull in computing geometry,especially the smallest circle covering,was utilized in the process of GCL.Simulation results showed that GCL is able to achieve higher accuracy than other comparable localization algorithms in most cases,and that has the time complexity of O（nlogn） which is proper for resource-constrained sensor networks.…”

An energy-efficient multi-channel MAC protocol for linear sensor network by Fei TONG, Rucong SUI, Yu CHEN, Heng SU, Hengrui LIU, Shangfeng SU, Yuke YAN

“…Sensor nodes in linear sensor network (LSN) are deployed linearly due to the linear topology of the monitoring area.Most of the state-of-the-art medium access control (MAC) protocols designed for LSN adopted the duty-cycling and pipelined-forwarding (DCPF) schemes.They can reduce data propagation delay and network energy consumption but may still cause issues such as transmission competition, interference, and energy hole.To address these issues, an improved DCPF MAC protocol was proposed based on multiple channels and redundant-node deployment for LSN.The extensive simulations based on OPNET demonstrate that, compared with existing protocols, the proposed protocol shows a better performance in terms of energy efficiency, packet delivery ratio, throughput, and packet transmission latency.…”

An Improved Algorithm of Wireless Sensor Networks Routing Protocol Based on LEACH by Jinshen Weng, Huabiao Qin, Zongguo Zhang

“…One of the most popular research focuses of wireless sensor network is postponing the life cycle of sensor network as well as reducing energy consumption.An efficient clustering routing algorithm based on LEACH（low energy adaptive clustering hierarch）was presented，which is the representative of hierarchy based protocol in wireless sensor network.The residual energy，average energy and maximum energy are considered in this algorithm while electing the cluster header.It can also limit the number of members of each cluster.At the same time，it can produce the first cluster header among the cluster heads which will use the multi-hop mode to balance the load of network.The simulation results show that this improved algorithm can reduce the energy consumption，extend the network life cycle and ensure the load balance of the system.…”
