Performance Evaluation of Wireless Sensor Networks' Communication Overhead and Energy Consumption using the Self-Organizing Map Method

Powerful actors and resource-constrained sensors are joined in wireless networks to form Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs). The lifespan of a sensor network may be effectively increased by clustering. The method of clustering involves breaking up sensor networks into smaller, more nimble groups of individuals with a cluster head. In hierarchically organised wireless sensor networks, clustering algorithms must choose the ideal number of clusters. In this study, we examine the effectiveness of cluster-based wireless sensor networks for various wireless sensor network communication patterns (WSNs). By utilising the self-organizing map (SOM) based clustering approach, we concentrate on their performances in terms of Communication overhead and Energy consumption in WSN with varied velocities for the cluster based protocol.https://www.ijtsrd.com/engineering/electronics-and-communication-engineering/51936/performance-evaluation-of-wireless-sensor-networks-communication-overhead-and-energy-consumption-using-the-selforganizing-map-method/mangukiya-hiteshkumar-bhupatbha
