Implementation of Secure Energy Efficient Network Priority Routing(SEENPR) Protocol with Secure Key Management in WSN

Abstract

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of sensor nodes, which act as source and link nodes through which the data forward to sink node. However, the nodes in network have limited computation complexity, transmission capability and restricted battery life. Several routing protocols are available to improve the performance of network but very few concentrates on security issues. The performance of routing and security protocol in WSN affect due to unreliable low power links, insecure communication, threats, and resource limitations which limits the design of an efficient routing and security algorithm in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we propose a secure energy efficient routing protocol with effective data collection and key management in dynamic WSN. The routing protocol prolongs network lifetime and minimizes energy consumption. The routing protocol implement with A* algorithm and security improve with EECLDSA (Enhanced Elliptic Curve Logic Discrete Algorithm). The combined Secure Energy Efficient Network Priority Routing (SEENPR) apply for effective data collection and key management in WSNs. SEENPR uses k-means algorithm to improve cluster head (CH) selection using Euclidean distance. The SEENPR implement in testbed to evaluate performance with respect to security and key management.
