Abstract

This paper has presented efficient energy conservation for wireless sensor network (WSN) security. As a form of distributed network, a WSN aids the gathering of information in wireless communication within an area of interest. A WSN deployed for application faces the challenge of limited power over use time. This is because the energy of nodes in sensor networks ensures that reliable communication among nodes is achieved with less cost when properly managed. An algorithm that performs routine task anchored on node clustering to improve and efficiently manage energy level of sensor nodes is modeled and implemented. A WSN topology model and algorithm was developed and implemented in MATLAB. Simulations were conducted in MATLAB environment to analyze the effectiveness of the developed algorithm in ensuring that energy consumed by a node is minimized. Results obtained indicated that the overall energy consumed by the WSN topology was less than the initial energy of each node set as 2.0 J. In terms of the variation of energy consumed with respect to traffic volume, it was observed that as the number of messages transmitted across the WSN increases, the average energy consumed per node and energy consumed by the network increases. In the case of the average energy consumed per node, the value increases from 0.0008075 J to 0.003358 J, and increases from 0.1116 J to 0.3820 J in terms of energy consumed by nodes for 5000 messages to 20000 messages respectively.
