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.…”

Communication performance analysis of wireless sensor network for railway environmental monitoring by Ruifeng CHEN, Ming NI, Chunjie XU, Hao HU

“…Wireless sensor network (WSN) deployed along the railway can be commonly applied to environmental monitoring.In order to lengthen the lifetime of WSN,it is essential to introduce the node sleeping mechanism.Therefore,firstly the stochastic process theory was adopted and an analytical framework was proposed to study the communication performance of WSN in railway scenarios based on the node sleeping mechanism.Furthermore,the impacts of different system factors on the reception performance of WSN were analyzed under railway scenarios,and then the relation between the optimal ratio of active nodes and other system factors could be obtained.A simulation platform was established to verify the reception performance of WSN in safety areas and hazards-prone sections respectively.Finally,practical case was presented to verify the deployment scheme based on node sleeping mechanism.The analytical results could provide the guidelines for practical deployment of WSN under railway scenarios.…”
