Energy-Aware Optimization Model in Chain-Based Routing
Title: Energy-Aware Optimization Model in Chain-Based Routing Authors: Nguyen, Thanh Tung Keywords: Sensor;Routing;Chain based routing;Linear programming;Non convex optimization Issue Date: 2014 Publisher: Springer US Abstract: Sensor networks are deployed in numerous military and civil applications, such as remote target detection, weather monitoring, weather forecast, natural resource exploration and disaster management. Despite having many potential applications, wireless sensor networks still face a number of challenges due to their particular characteristics that other wireless networks, like cellular networks or mobile ad hoc networks do not have. The most difficult challenge of the design of wireless sensor networks is the limited energy resource of the battery of the sensors. This limited resource restricts the operational time that wireless sensor networks can function in their applications. Routing protocols play a major part in the en...
