A Fuzzy-Based Management for Power-Aware Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

In recent years, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is one important type of mobile network that consists of many sensor nodes (SNs). The power consumption rate and bandwidth of each SN becomes an important issue and needs to be addressed. For increasing the reliability of WSN, this paper proposed a power-aware mechanism to select a stable manager from SNs by fuzzy based inference systems based on the factors of speed, power and location. Further, our mechanism can trigger a mobile agent to distribute the managerial workload.
