Energy Enhancement in Wireless Sensor Networks through Distributed Fibre Sensor
Deepak Kumar Choudhary, Sanjay Mahawar · Research Journal of Information Technology & Software Management · 2016
Based on the protocol—low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH), we investigate an improved energy-efficient communication protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in the presence of distributed optical fiber sensor (DFS) links located at the centre of WSN fields. Network performances in terms of lifetime of nodes are simulated for the cases that two WSNs can or cannot communicate with each other. The lifetime of such sensor network with rectangular topology is further investigated.
