Abstract
Nowadays, the recent developments in the field of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have initiated new applications of WSNs which can be used in many fields, such as military, environment, health, home and industry. One of the emerged wireless sensor networks topologies are linear wireless sensor networks (LWSNs). They have been rising as a great focus area of research. Such wireless sensor networks have a large number of applications such as border monitoring, railway track monitoring, structural health monitoring of bridges, health care and machines surveillance. LWSNs are widely applied in oil and gas pipelines infrastructure monitoring applications to enable the automatic measurement, analyses, storage and transmission of real-time data. Minimization of energy consumption of LWSNs is crucial for their proper usage. Using two different system models, this research investigates the minimization of LWSNs energy consumption using optimal node placement strategies compared to simple equal-distance placement scheme.
