Abstract

Wireless sensor networks have scarce energy resources. Improvement in power saving and network lifetime is of great significance. Idle sensors do contribute to power consumption as good as the working sensors. Wireless communication systems power consumption and network lifetime can be improved if idle sensors are brought to sleeping state. We explored state of the art in sensor sleeping strategies. This paper proposes a new model for Enhanced lifetime distributed power saving algorithm in wireless sensor networks (ELDPS) protocol. It enhances the state of the art by improving coverage, network lifetime and less power consumption. Our simulation on Omnet++ validates our model.
