    • Algorithms for Coverage Improvement in a Sensor Network 

      Maddi, Sunil Reddy (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      Sensors are devices which have the ability to receive and respond to a signal. These sensors, when used as a group, form a sensor network. Sensors in a sensor network can communicate and transmit data. In the early stages ...

    • Alternative Clustering Algorithms in Sensor Networks 

      Gupta, Divya (North Dakota State University, 2010)
      A wireless sensor network is composed of a large number of tiny sensor nodes that can be deployed in a variety of environments like battle fields, water, large fields, and the like, and can transmit data to a Base station ...

    • The Grid Scan Heuristic for Extending Lifetime in Wireless Sensor Networks 

      Pachva, Srikar (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      Wireless Sensor Networks, consisting of sensing devices which sense the environment and communicate information among each other, is an emergent field in wireless networking with many potential applications. Efficiency of ...

    • A Network Optimization Solver for Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks 

      Samaraweera, Shaminda Asela (North Dakota State University, 2010)
      Many wireless sensor network applications require energy efficient communication between nodes in the network. Sensor networks are of limited resources. Due to this limitation, the routing between the nodes is one of the ...

    • Optimal Placement of Relay Stations in Wireless Sensor Networks 

      Vallabh, Kiran Kumar (North Dakota State University, 2013)
      Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are a collection of nodes organized into a cooperative network with sensing, processing and transmitting capabilities. WSNs are becoming an increasingly prominent technology that can be used ...

    • Optimization Modeling for Wireless Sensor Scheduling 

      Chekuri, Srujan Kumar Raju (North Dakota State University, 2013)
      Wireless sensor networks, consisting of sensing devices which sense the environment and communicate information among each other, is an emergent field in wireless networking with many potential applications. The efficiency ...

    • Positioning of Relay Stations in Wireless Sensor Networks 

      Koganti, Nikhil (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      A sensor is a device which can detect or measure a physical property and which records, indicates, or otherwise responds to the signal received. A wireless sensor in a network can communicate with the sensors located within ...

    • REND: Reliable and Energy-Efficient Node-Disjoint Paths in Wireless Sensor Networks 

      Yanteru, Siva (North Dakota State University, 2010)
      In wireless sensor networks, finding most reliable and most efficient paths between source node and destination node is considered NP hard problem. We can increase reliability by ability to find node-disjoint alternate ...

    • Shortest Path in a Wireless Sensor Network with Multiple Sensor Failures 

      Poreddy, Sandeep Reddy (North Dakota State University, 2011)
      This paper shows how a shortest path can be obtained in a wireless sensor network, between a source sensor and a destination sensor, in a hop-by-hop fashion, considering multiple sensor failures along the path of data ...

    • Wireless Sensor Network Scheduling and Coverage Using an ABC Algorithm 

      Pachaiyappan, Sathya (North Dakota State University, 2015)
      Limited sensor battery capacity is a major issue in wireless sensor networks. If all of the sensors in a network need not be in an awake state to provide adequate coverage at any given time, it is possible to strategically ...
