Abstract
En 中文
Recently, Consensus based Clock Synchronization (CCS) algorithms have gained much attention in wireless sensor networks due to its simplicity, distributed nature and robustness. But, most of the algorithms are all node based, i.e., every node iterates the consensus algorithm to reach the synchronized state. This increases the overall message complexity, imposes congestion and delay in the network and high consumption of energy. In an energy constraint environment, it is desirable that a subset of sensors along with a limited number of neighboring sensors should be selected a priori such that the message complexity will be minimized and energy can be saved. Further, the selection of subset sensors must ensure connectivity for consensus propagation to achieve network wide synchronization and the neighboring sensors must be assigned in such a way that the delay must be minimized and balanced for faster consensus convergence. The overall problem is formulated as a Connected Dominating Set based Delay Balanced Topology (CDSDBT) problem and is shown to be NP-complete. To make the problem tractable, a Random Weighted Genetic Algorithm (RWGA) based strategy is proposed to handle the trade-off between the objective functions and to select the Pareto optimal solution (topology). Simulation results show that using the proposed strategy, the performance of some state-of-the-art CCS protocols have been improved significantly over their all node based counterpart. A comparative analysis is also carried out with recent and state-of-the-art GA based Minimum Connected Dominating Set (GAMCDS) strategy and GA based Load Balanced Connected Dominating Set (GALBCDS) strategy for the test CCS protocols which are used as topological backbone for other protocols and applications.
