Energy-Efficient Secure Path Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks

الملخص EN

To collect the data and transmit them on the base station is the main task of the sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSNs).

This transmission requires a specific routing algorithm.

To prolong the network lifetime, sensor nodes need a secure load-balancing route.

In this paper, we investigate the facts of ensuring secure sensed data in a balanced energy network backbone, and propose energy-efficient secure path algorithm (ESPA) for WSNs.

It is a process of ensuring sensed data authenticity and integrity under a well-structured energy-efficient routing.

To overcome the limitation caused by the symmetric key cryptography algorithms for securing data in WSNs, we proposed a mechanism for checking data integrity in a balanced energy network backbone.

On this basis, we use the combined version of distance energy aware routing and a checking data integrity method for WSNs.

ESPA provides a better performance in maximizing the network lifetime.
