An Optimization Framework for Mobile Data Collection

in Energy-Harvesting Wireless Sensor Networks

ABSTRACT

We use mobility to circumvent communication bottlenecks caused by spatial energy variations. We employ a mobile collector, called SenCar to collect data from designated sensors and balance energy consumptions in the network.

EXISTING SYSTEM

Energy harvesting technologies have provided great potentials for traditional battery-powered sensor networks to achieve perpetual operations. Due to dynamics from the temporal profiles of ambient energy sources, most of the studies so far have focused on designing and optimizing energy management schemes on single sensor node, but overlooked the impact of spatial variations of energy distribution when sensors work together at different locations.

DISADVANTAGES

  1. Unbalanced Energyconsumptions in the network.
  2. Designing and optimizing energy management schemes on single sensor node.

PROPOSED SYSTEM

To design a robust sensor network, we use mobility to circumvent communication bottlenecks caused by spatial energy variations. We employ a mobile collector, called SenCarto collect data from esignadted sensors and balance energy consumptions in the network. To show spatial-temporal energy variations, we first conduct a case study in a solar-powered network and analyze possible impact on network performance. Next, we present a two-step approach for mobile data collection. First, we adaptively select a subset of sensor locations where the SenCar stops to collect data packets in a multi-hop fashion. We develop an adaptive algorithm to search for nodes based on their energy and guarantee data collection tour length is bounded. Second, we focus on designing distributed algorithms to achieve maximum network utility by adjusting data rates, link scheduling and flow routing that adapts to the spatial-temporal environmental energy fluctuations. Finally, our numerical results indicate the distributed algorithms can converge to optimality very fast and validate its convergence in case of node failure. We also show advantages of our framework can adapt to spatial-temporal energy variations and demonstrate its superiority compared to the network with static data sink.

ADVANTAGES

  1. SenCarto collect data from esignadted sensors and balance energy consumptions in the network.
  2. We develop an adaptive algorithm to search for nodes based on their energy and guarantee data collection tour length is bounded.
  3. Designing distributed algorithms to achieve maximum network utility by adjusting data rates, link scheduling and flow routing that adapts to the spatial-temporal environmental energy fluctuations.
