Cross-Layer Optimized Energy-Balanced Topology Control Algorithm for WSNs

الملخص EN

Because of the complexity of the environment and the limited resources of nodes, there will be an imbalanced energy consumption and a short life among nodes in the wireless sensor network.

In this paper, by introducing the concept of game theory and supermodel game theory, we solve the challenge of a wireless sensor network topology control method based on cross-layer information design.

The cross-layer information such as node degree, network connectivity, and MAC layer interference is integrated into the design of utility function to establish a new topological game model.

Then, based on this topology control model, we propose a cross-layer optimized energy-balanced topology control algorithm (COETC).

Compared with other algorithms, our COETC algorithm not only guarantees the network connectivity and robustness while reducing the required node transmitting power but also achieves good energy balance and high energy efficiency.

Ultimately, our method effectively prolongs network lifetime and improves network performance.
