A Study on Secure Data Aggregation and Routing for Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

In the present scenario, deployment of large-scale sensor nodes in the heterogeneous environment is the challenging factor for the network designers. While designing future networking, there are several performance parameters (i.e., cost, energy, delay, bandwidth, transmission rate) involves securing the routing path as well as improves the network lifetime. In this regards data aggregation suitable approach which scales up the overall network lifetime as well as saves the cost and energy in the networking. In this study have to discuss the prior research study on both routing strategy as well as data aggregation mechanism and can be known that there is need to develop a network model that ensures the high level of security in data-aggregation for future WSNs. Also needs to present a optimize routing scheme for data transmission and aggregation for resisting any lethal attacks that significantly drains the energy of sensors. Finally, have discusses a research gap towards data aggregation with optimal routing strategy.KeywordsData-aggregationClusteringRouting algorithmSecurity protocolWSNs
