Abstract

Due to the limited energy supply, energy efficiency is the most important issue for wireless sensor networks. In addition, next generation networks are also expected to support QoS sensitive data services. In this paper, a new online sensor network management scheme is developed for energy efficiency and QoS provisioning. To satisfy these conflicting requirements, the proposed scheme consists of clustering and routing algorithms. Without global network information, the online control paradigm is realized in a distributed way. Therefore, the principle contributions of these algorithms are its scalability and responsiveness to current network situations. Simulation results indicate the superior performance of the proposed schemes, while other schemes cannot offer such an attractive performance balance.
