This thesis investigates efficiency-aware and energy-aware data-collection problems by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with limited-capacity battery, in a clustered robot network. In each cluster, a cluster head (CH) robot allocates tasks to remaining robots and collects data from them. Firstly, we consider this problem by focusing on minimizing energy consumption of UAV coupled to minimum cost data collection from CH robots by visiting optimal portion of CH robots. UAV decides the CH robots to visit by considering both their locations and its battery capacity. If it cannot visit all CH robots, each nonvisited CH robot forwards its data to another CH robot. Cost optimization includes decision of transmission paths of transmitting robots. Optimal approach is derived, and total energy consumption of CH robots are compared for various numbers of clusters under different strategies. Secondly, we consider the problem by defining the priority set of CH robots which UAV needs to visit. We aim to minimize the total energy consumption of CH robots by visiting optimally a portion of CH robots including priority set. Energy consumptions of CH robots under different strategies are evaluated for various numbers of CH robots and priority sets. Thirdly, we tackle the problem by considering not only different locations but also different data efficiencies for different CH robots. We aim to minimize total joint cost of energy consumption and data efficiencies of CH robots by visiting optimal set of CH robots. Total joint costs of CH robots under different strategies are evaluated for various numbers of CH robots.

UAV-Driven Sustainable and Quality-Aware Data Collection in Robotic Wireless Sensor Networks Gül, Ömer Melih; Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref; Kantarci, Burak (2022-01-01) Energy-aware data collection is of paramount importance for robotic and wireless sensor networks. Although static sink-aided cluster-based protocols provide energy-efficient solutions, UAV-aided approaches can be considered as better alternatives to reduce energy consumption while data acquisition compared with static sinks. Most of the existing UAV-driven solutions have not considered a limit on battery capacity of the UAV, which needs to be considered in a practical manner. This paper investigates energy-...
Packet Arrival Analysis in Wireless Sensor Networks Doddapaneni, Krishna; Shah, Purav; Ever, Enver; Tasiran, Ali; Omondi, Fredrick A.; Mostarda, Leonardo; Gemikonakli, Orhan (2015-03-27) Distributed sensor networks have been discussed for more than 30 years, but the vision of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has been brought into reality only by the rapid advancements in the areas of sensor design, information technologies, and wireless networks that have paved the way for the proliferation of WSNs. The unique characteristics of sensor networks introduce new challenges, amongst which prolonging the sensor lifetime is the most important. WSNs have seen a tremendous growth in various applicati...
Wireless Backhaul in 5G and Beyond: Issues, Challenges and Opportunities Tezergil, Berke; Onur, Ertan (2022-1-01) IEEEWith the introduction of new technologies such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), High Altitude Platform Station (HAPS), Millimeter Wave (mmWave) frequencies, Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (mMIMO), and beamforming, wireless backhaul is expected to be an integral part of the 5G networks. While this concept is nothing new, it was shortcoming in terms of performance compared to the fiber backhauling. However, with these new technologies, fiber is no longer the foremost technology for backhauling. W...
Energy-Aware Data Delivery Framework for Safety-Oriented Mobile IoT Al-Turjman, Fadi (2018-01-01) The proliferation of wireless multimedia sensor networks has given rise to intelligent transportation systems as a mobile data-sharing model. This vision can be extended under the umbrella of the mobile Internet of Things to include versatile resources, such as smartphones, radio frequency identification tags, and sensors on roads that can be utilized in emergency situations. The facilitation of such a vision faces key challenges in terms of interoperability, resource management and energy consumption. In t...
Wearable battery-less wireless sensor network with electromagnetic energy harvesting system Chamanian, Salar; Ulusan, Hasan; Zorlu, Ozge; Baghaee, Sajjad; Uysal, Elif; Külah, Haluk (2016-10-01) This paper presents a battery-less wireless sensor network (WSN) equipped with electromagnetic (EM) energy harvesters and sensor nodes with adjustable time-interval based on stored the energy. A wearable EM energy harvesting system is developed and optimized to power-up a typical wireless sensor mote from body motion. This is realized through characterization of the body motion and design of a compact EM energy harvester according to vibration frequencies generated during human running and walking. The harv...
