Topology Aware Auto-configuration In Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless sensor network consists of a number of energy constrained sensors which are densely deployed in large geographical area. We consider dynamic configuration of wireless sensor networks, where certain functions can be automatically assigned to nodes at any time of network operations, based on the parameters such as remaining energy and topology changes. In order to achieve the topological controlled network reconfiguration the received signal strength indication value along with battery level of nodes were used which indicate any changes in the network layout and remaining energy of the nodes. Based on these two parameters new tasks were then assigned to the nodes. The algorithm's performance was tested in different situations and the results displayed over the graphical user interface showed that the algorithm's performed in the expected manner. The algorithm provides the best platform to evaluate different topology based energy efficiency techniques as the algorithm accommodates changes in the topology of the network.
