Bandwidth and Energy Management in Wireless Sensor Networks  

Abstract

The emergence of sensor networks as one of the dominant technology trends in the coming decades has posed numerous problems regarding the Quality of Service (QoS) parameter to researchers. These QoS parameters are often found to be as limited resources. Hence to effectively utilize these limited resources, we propose a technique to manage two of the most basic QoS parameters of sensor networks, they are bandwidth and energy. We propose bandwidth management by implementing rules that guide the data streams to a specific data rate, so as to treat different data to its own credit. To manage energy we present GAF algorithm that effectively reduces energy consumption of the nodes keeping a constant level of routing fidelity. The simulation is run on NS-2.34 with 35 nodes in total. The simulation results obtained show that the combination of the both bandwidth and energy in management performs better than the existing protocols.
