Abstract

Community wireless networks have been proposed as a powerful technique to spread broadband network access to underprivileged, under-provisioned and remote areas. These networks consist of a few Internet gateways which are reached by homes using multi-hop wireless links between wireless routers. The benefits of such networks include low costs for deployment due to reduced wiring needs, low maintenance and increased flexibility. Current practice in routing protocols for such networks (e.g. LQSR, OLSR and SrcRR) is for routing protocols to obtain information about the link quality (via some metric such as ETT, ETX) and select a gateway to whom a route minimizes the cost of the metric. All nodes operate on the same known frequency to maintain connectivity.

Energy-Efficient Reprogramming of a Swarm of Mobile Sensors

Existing code update protocols for reprogramming nodes in a sensor network are either unsuitable or inefficient when used in a mobile environment. The prohibitive factor of uncertainty about a node's location due to their continuous movement coupled ...
A sensor deployment approach using glowworm swarm optimization algorithm in wireless sensor networks
Highlights
► We present a sensor deployment scheme based on glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) to enhance the coverage after an initial random deployment of the sensors. ► A sensor node is attracted towards its neighbors having lower ...
Abstract
A wireless sensor network is composed of a large number of sensor nodes that are densely deployed in a sensing environment. The effectiveness of the wireless sensor networks depends to a large extent on the coverage provided by the ...
Swarm intelligence to wireless ad hoc networks: adaptive honeybee foraging during communication sessions

With no fixed infrastructure, discovering new ways of managing high mobility and limited resources to produce optimized routing in wireless ad hoc networks is the key objective of active research. Adaptive foraging principles found in insects have ...
