Wireless Sensor Networks ( Wsn ) Is A Key Innovation For The Wireless Network Technology

3) Secure data aggregation: Fine grain sensing is one of the important compensation of a wireless sensor network which is provided by the large and dense sets of nodes .So to avoid overwhelming amounts of traffic, the sensed values must be aggregated and the aggregation may take place in many places in the network depending on the architecture of the wireless sensor network. For example, the system may average the temperature of a geographic region, combine sensor values to compute the location and velocity of a moving object, or aggregate data to avoid false alarms in real-world event detection. All aggregation locations must be secured [8].

A WSN is a type of wireless networks that consists of collection sensor nodes which are tiny devices. Each sensor node of the network has different processing capability. It may contain multiple types of memory (program, data and flash memories), have a RF transceiver, have a power source (e.g., batteries and solar cells), and accommodate various sensors and actuators. The nodes communicate wirelessly and often self-organize after being deployed in an ad hoc fashion [13, 14]. Optimum need of each sensor node is to maximize its own utility function. Also the whole network requires resource assignments balance to perform in a useful and efficient way. This chapter presents a brief survey on WSNs showing its types, characterizing features, protocols and applications.

Abstract - Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) comprises of several tiny, low-cost, resource constrained sensor nodes. These nodes are placed in harsh environments and generally are used for air pollution monitoring, water quality monitoring, industrial monitoring, health monitoring and more. Routing is difficult in such surroundings primarily due to the unique constraints the wireless sensor networks suffer from. Wireless sensor network is highly dynamic, making existing routing protocols ineffective. This paper concentrates on energy efficiency of the protocols. Both the protocol presented are hierarchical and cluster based. Both have sensor nodes and a base station (BS). The BS selects the Cluster Heads (CH) among themselves. CH is the elected sensor node which passes on the sensor data collected by sensor nodes of its cluster to either BS or other CH. All candidate nodes for becoming CH are listed, based on the various factors like relative distance of the candidate node from the Base Station, outstanding energy level, possible number of neighboring sensor nodes the

The WSN infrastructures can be designed in a variety of ways to address different priorities and make the appropriate technology trade-offs based on the requirements of the certain application. There are number of interrelated design variables associated with wireless sensor networking.

Abstract: Security is always a main task to be performed in any network. Wireless Sensor Network are different from other networks.Hierarchical Routing Protocol are the best energy saving and efficient rout wireless sensor networks. Our Objective is to Provide End to End Confidentiality in LEACH and Performance measurement of leach protocol for various homomorphic encryptions. Leach is a very secure Protocol as cluster head changes in each round but sometimes data needs to be very confidential of some nodes to Base station. So the best technique used for providing this is Homomorphic Encryption.Our Objective is to apply Multiplicative Homomorphic Encryption in LEACH.So that need of decrypting data at cluster head is removed.

when compared with secure foundation of network because of limited energy, the nodes number, storage, Internet bandwidth, communication of sensor nodes and the capabilities of computation. Two main reasons are computation capabilities and low traffic rates. The low traffic rate of sensor nodes can not support battery of sensors to make the network smooth for a long time and devices in the WSN can not support very complex computation to deal with some typical internet attacks. Additionally, Internet attacks can be divided into two types: internal attacks and external attacks. Generally, internal attacks are produced from malicious nodes. On the other hand, when it comes to the external attacks, wireless sensor network are easy to be attacked by several types of external internet attacks, which can be considered to three main aspects: secrecy and authentication attacks, network availability attacks and replay attacks.(p135, denial). Although many traditional techniques that have been used to resist various kinds of attacks, there are still remain serious problems in security of WSN. As a result, it is necessary to come up with the most effective approach to handle the Internet attacks in time because the faster development of technology, the more security problems. For these reasons, the prevention of

Bootstrapping using the trusted base station is one option where each node shares a single key with base station and then setup keys to other nodes with this base station. Many other approaches have been designed for this key management technique but disadvantages do exist for each and finally a secure key distribution mechanism is needed for large scale WSNs.

In this paper, I will mainly focus on analyzing and evaluating the current Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). This paper starts with an overview on fundamentals of WSNs, by providing necessary background to understand

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) consists of a collection of nodes which are deployed randomly in a hostile environment. It has a fixed infrastructure and self-organized in to an arbitrary topology. Though there are advancements in technology, security in WSN is a principal concern. As the deployed sensors are in an open environment, the intrusion of attacks is very much higher. Also the WSN has broadcast nature of communication; they are easily affected by the attacks. Commonly prevailing attacks are Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, spoofing attack, selective forwarding attack, sinkhole attack, sybil attack, wormhole attack, black hole attack, grayhole attack, HELLO flood attack, etc. However we observe that Denial of Service attack is a

Wireless sensor nodes consists of three pars first one is wireless means without wires second one is sensor mean our nodes or data sensing process third and last one is networks means connection of these nodes to form a network to communicate and report data. When we concern its quality of service it may become too wide part of research so we are promised to work only in energy efficient protocols. The reason behind wireless

A Wireless Sensor Network can be composed of large number of tiny of sensor nodes spread in a wide area and communicating with each other either directly or through routing mechanisms to the other nodes. One or more of the nodes are the base station with uninterrupted battery source than the other nodes. Since the devices in WSN are often tiny devices with small form factor the computational power of these devices is usually small because there will not support large amount of hardware. Furthermore as the devices are wireless they need to obtain their energy from an inbuilt battery which in the end needs to be recharged or replaced. If the battery of a device is depleted it needs an immediate substitution to function further .

Abstract-Key management is one of the most important issues of any secure communication with the increasing demand for the security in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) it is important to introduce the secure and reliable key management in the WSNs.Data confidentiality and authenticity are critical in WSNs. Key management objective is to secure and keep up secure connections between sensor nodes at network formation and running stages.

Wireless Sensor Networks are formed by autonomous nodes containing partial memory, better range of communication, power and capable bandwidth. WSN are used to inspect the corporal and environmental conditions through a system and perform data processing. However, during data acquisition different types of issues and circumstances are to be resolved.

Sensors are small, low-cost and low-power communication devices which detects or measures a physical property and records, indicates, or otherwise responds to it. Basically, a single sensor node comprises a sensing part, power source, transceiver and processor. The sensing part enables them to collect information of a particular interest. Moreover, it determines their application. The type of power source a sensor node employs has a significant effect on the size, cost and longevity of the node. The integrated transceiver provides sensor nodes the capability for wireless communication between each other or as a network of devices. Hence, the term Wireless Sensor Networks.

When a sensor node has new data, it advertises it using the ADV messages to its neighbors. When a neighboring node receives this message, it checks whether it has already received or requested the advertised data. If not, it sends an REQ message back to the broadcast address requesting the data item. Upon receiving a REQ message, only the originating node sends the actual data to the requesting nodes. One advantage of this protocol is its simplicity and does not require any other topology information.
