Energy efficient techniques for 5G mobile networks in WSN: A Survey

摘要

A wireless sensor network is the smallest unit of a network which supports large scale deployment, reliability, mobility etc. WSN has various nodes which are connected by radio frequency or any other medium without wire. These nodes are sensor nodes which gather information and transmit the data to the user. This transmission requires energy. With the advancement of technology from 4G TO 4GLTE in mobile communication, the no. of users have been increased which requires communication without break. This results in power drain of mobile batteries. So, in order to enhance the longevity of mobile batteries, a scheme should be introduced to minimize the energy consumption which will result in prolonged battery life. In this paper we discuss and compare various schemes which have been proposed to reduce the energy consumption and establish an energy efficient secure communication scheme in wireless sensor network and mobile ad-hoc network.
