Although nanoscale sensors provide valuable data at finer levels, their size limitations impose difficulties in designing nanoscale systems. The limitations in the hardware part of such systems consequentially affect the software part too. Routing, being one of the main functions of the communication software of nano-sensors, it requires customised design, where constraints such as the energy efficiency have to be considered. Knowing that communication is the most energy consuming operation for the sensor networks, in general, the importance of routing protocol becomes clear. With this motivation, the existing routing protocols for the wireless nano-sensor networks are reviewed. The presentation of the classification and comparison of the existing protocols, followed by the discussion on the proposed simple energy-aware routing protocol based on the backward-learning' paradigm. Simulations are carried out in ns-3 by using Nano-Sim package. Results are listed to show the efficiency of the proposed method in terms of energy use and the packet statistics.

Immune system based distributed node and rate selection in wireless sensor networks Atakan, Baris; Akan, Ozguer B. (2006-12-13) Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are event-based systems that rely on the collective effort of dense deployed sensor nodes. Due to the dense deployment, since sensor observations are spatially correlated with respect to spatial location of sensor nodes, it may not be necessary for every sensor node to transmit its data. Therefore, due to the resource constraints of sensor nodes it is needed to select the minimum number of sensor nodes to transmit the data to the sink. Furthermore, to achieve the application-...
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...
Fuzzy Decision Fusion for Single Target Classification in Wireless Sensor Networks Gok, Sercan; Yazıcı, Adnan; Coşar, Ahmet; George, Roy (2010-07-23) With the advances in technology, low cost and low footprint sensors are being used more and more commonly. Especially for military applications wireless sensor networks (WSN) have become an attractive solution as they have great use for avoiding deadly danger in combat. For military applications, classification of a target in a battlefield plays an important role. A wireless sensor node has the ability to sense the raw signal data in battlefield, extract the feature vectors from sensed signal and produce a ...
Finite-horizon online energy-efficient transmission scheduling schemes for communication links Bacınoğlu, Baran Tan; Uysal Bıyıkoğlu, Elif; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013) The proliferation of embedded systems, mobile devices, wireless sensor applications and increasing global demand for energy directed research attention toward self-sustainable and environmentally friendly systems. In the field of communications, this new trend pointed out the need for study of energy constrained communication and networking. Particularly, in the literature, energy efficient transmission schemes have been well studied for various cases. However, fundamental results have been obtained mostly ...
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...
