SEEMLESS: Distributed Algorithm for Topology Control of Survivable Energy Efficient Multihop Wireless Sensor Networks Using Adjustable Transmission Power

Abstract

This paper suggests a distributed algorithm named (SEEMLESS) survivable energy efficient multihop wireless sensor networks which determines a transmission power level for each sensor in a wireless sensor network (WSN) with guaranteeing survivability of WSN topology and minimizing the energy consumption of each sensor. The SEEMLESS algorithm provides a mechanism to make WSN topology survivable by letting each sensor have two closest neighbors and by letting each cluster head have one additional neighbor.
