Reducing energy consumption of nodes using force based auto deployment of Wireless Sensor Networks

Networked tiny sensors technologies have been recognized among the most significant technologies for the 21st century. Because of hardware and network technology advancements we have low-cost, low-power multifunctional miniature sensor devices. These sensor nodes team up between themselves to create a sensing network. A sensor network can be used to access information anytime, anywhere. Data can be collected, processed, analyzed and disseminated. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have many applications but typically take in some kind of supervisory, monitoring and tracking. Specific applications for WSNs include infrastructure security, environmental monitoring, object tracking, nuclear reactor control, green house monitoring, industrial monitoring, fire detection, traffic monitoring, and infrastructure security. There are many issues in WSN: power management, security, privacy, routing, localization etc. In view of reducing energy consumption of sensor nodes this paper presents the force based algorithm to auto deploy a sensor network to reduce the power consumed by the sensor nodes to improve their lifetime.
