RF and acoustic communications are widely used in terrestrial wireless sensor networks and underwater environments, respectively. In this paper, we explore the use of ultrasonic communication in terrestrial wireless sensor networks. We aim to investigate the ultrasonic channel in order to observe whether reliable communication is possible among the nodes of an ultrasonic wireless sensor network as an alternative to an RF-based network. Since ultrasound has not been popularly utilized for communication purposes so far, we inspect in this paper some characteristics of the ultrasonic channel with an experimental setup utilizing ultrasonic transmitters and receivers.

Routing and security in wireless sensor networks, an experimental evaluation of a proposed trust based routing protocol Chalabianloo, Niaz; İşler, Veysi; Department of Computer Engineering (2013) Satisfactory results obtained from sensor networks and the ongoing development in electronics and wireless communications have led to an impressive boost in the number of applications based on WSNs. Along with the growth in popularity of WSNs, previously implemented solutions need further improvements and new challenges arise which need to be solved. One of the main concerns regarding WSNs is the existence of security threats against their routing operations. Likelihood of security attacks in a structure su...
Rule-based in-network processing for event-driven applications in wireless sensor networks Şanlı, Özgür; Yazıcı, Adnan; Körpeoğlu, İbrahim; Department of Computer Engineering (2011) Wireless sensor networks are application-specific networks that necessitate the development of specific network and information processing architectures that can meet the requirements of the applications involved. The most important challenge related to wireless sensor networks is the limited energy and computational resources of the battery powered sensor nodes. Although the central processing of information produces the most accurate results, it is not an energy-efficient method because it requires a cont...
Analysis and modeling of routing and security problems in wireless sensor networks with mathematical programming İncebacak, Davut; Baykal, Nazife; Bıçakcı, Kemal; Department of Information Systems (2013) Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are composed of battery powered small sensor nodes with limited processing, memory and energy resources. Self organization property together with infrastructureless characteristics of WSNs make them favorable solutions for many applications. Algorithms and protocols developed for WSNs must consider the characteristics and constraints of WSNs but since battery replenishment is not possible or highly challenging for sensor nodes, one of the major concerns in designing network p...
Path planning and localization for mobile anchor based wireless sensor networks Erdemir, Ecenaz; Tuncer, Temel Engin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2017) In wireless sensor networks, sensors with limited resources are distributed in a wide area. Localizing the sensors is an important problem. Anchor nodes with known positions are used for sensor localization. A simple and efficient way of generating anchor nodes is to use mobile anchors which have built-in GPS units. In this thesis, a single mobile anchor is used to traverse the region of interest to communicate with the sensor nodes and identify their positions. Therefore planning the best trajectory for th...
Reliable real-time video communication in wireless sensor networks Ayran, Orhan; Akan, Özgür Barış; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007) Many wireless sensor network (WSN) applications require efficient multimedia communication capabilities. However, the existing communication protocols in the literature mainly aim to achieve energy efficiency and reliability objectives and do not address the multimedia communication challenges in WSN. In this thesis, comprehensive performance evaluation of the existing transport protocols is performed and it has been shown that the existing proposals achieve very poor performance in terms of large set of me...
