Title A name given to the resource A novel scheme for energy enhancement in wireless sensor networks Subject The topic of the resource bio inspired optimization; energy efficiency; mobility; routing; wireless sensor networks Description An account of the resource Wireless sensor networks consists of a large amount of miniaturized battery-powered wireless networked sensors which are intended to function for years without any human intervention. Because of the large number of sensors and the restrictions on the environment of their deployment, replacing the components cannot be thought of. So the only viable way out is to efficiently use the available resources. Energy efficiency is a major matter of concern in such networks even though energy harvesting techniques exists. Recent times have shown a growing interest on understanding and developing new strategies of wireless sensor network routing especially focussing on the optimal use of the limited and constrained resources like energy, memory and processing capabilities. Routing have to be given due importance as it consumes major part of the energy compared to that of sensing and processing. Adopting the natures self organising system intelligence for the emerging technologies is quite interesting and has proved to be efficient. This article sheds some light on the existing bio inspired routing protocols and explains a new procedure with mobile sinks for energy efficient routing in wireless sensor networks. 2015 IEEE.
