Lightweight Context Aware Routing in Wireless Sensor
Networks for Real Environments Keywords: WSN, Context Aware, Real Environments, Routing Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering & Technology Volume 34 , Issue 3 Samia Aijaz,Sana Hoor Jokhio,JAVED Ali Baloch Abstract Design and implementation of a WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) that can efficiently work for a longer time period must include identification of the deployment environment context and to conform to the behavior of the sensor nodes. The context information when treated with evaluation factor becomes a process of context awareness and the evaluation factor is called the context attribute. In this paper, we consider the context factor of energy. The paper identifies analyses and evaluates efficiency of two when used in a context aware environment. Furthermore, the study also highlights the strengths and weaknesses of sensor SPIN (Sensor Protocol for Information via Negotiation) and LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) protocols with respect to the support for WSN with heavy network traffic conditions. The performance has been evaluated in terms of energy efficiency, data packet transmission, network status, data management, reliability, etc. |
