CUT DETECTION DUE TO ENERGY FAILURE IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK USING CLUSTER BASED APPROACH
E. Anna Devi · 2015
The major disadvantage of the wireless sensor network is that its efficient performance may be seriously degraded due to the death of the sensor When attempted to study and discover the various causes for the failure of the sensor nodes, there are many factors like atmospheric factors, technical factors, environmental factors, mechanical factors, natural calamities etc,. Here, the failure of the sensor node due to energy failure is considered. In this paper, a different kind of challenge for the wireless sensor networks is addressed. It is discovered that there is a need to monitor the sensor network itself and to detect when the network has suffered any ill situation. The task of cut detection does not end up consuming a large part of the network resources. In the proposed work the base station is able to check the energy level of the sensor nodes present in the network at considerable number of information exchange so that the base station can come to know whenever problems occur with the sensor nodes.
