A Survey on Energy Efficient Node Discovery in Wireless Sensor Network
Priya Dongarwar, Purnima Soni · 2015
In the recent years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have gained increasing attention from both the actual users and research community. WSNs have a wide range of applications, ranging from military zones, monitoring environments, remote data collection. A major constraint in designing many such networks is energy. As sensor nodes are generally battery-powered devices, the difficult task in WSNs is how to reduce the consumption of energy on nodes, so that the network lifespan can be increases to reasonable times. Many techniques have been introduced to increase energy efficiency of WSNs. The most important solution to energy consumption in wireless networks namely neighbor node discovery and formulate an efficient protocol with which the nodes can estimate the exact information of their neighbors. The problem of energy consumption in wireless networks can be managed significantly by the method proposed In this paper we first reduce the energy consumption for the components of a sensor nodes and packets delivered to the destination by using Select Most Trusted Routing(SMTR) Algorithm so that data delivery rate is increase. The Paper discusses the main solution for energy conservation in WSNs by reducing consumption of energy on nodes.
