    Quality-of Differentiation in Single-Path and Multi-Path Routing for Wireless Sensor Network-Based Smart Grid Applications
    (Elsevier, 2014-11) Sahin, Dilan; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri; Kocak, Taskin; Tuna, Gurkan
    Electrical grid is one of the most important infrastructure of the modern nation. However, power grid has been aged over 100 years and prone to major failures. The imbalance between power demand and supply, the equipment failures and the lack of comprehensive monitoring and control capabilities are other important signs to take incremental steps for switching to a smarter power grid with effective communication, automation and monitoring skills. This new concept is named as smart grid, which is a modern power grid system with advanced communication, monitoring, sensing and control capabilities. Wireless sensor network (WSN) concept places an important role in this modernization process of the power grid with its efficient and low-cost deployment characteristics. However, harsh and complex smart grid environmental conditions, dynamic topology changes, connectivity problems, interference and fading may pose some challenges for the communication performance of WSN technology. For this objective, in this paper, the use of multi-path and single-path QoS-aware routing algorithms under harsh SG environmental conditions is investigated in order to evaluate their service differentiation capabilities in reliability and timeliness domains. In this regard, this study is an important step towards developing novel routing protocols specifically designed for smart grid environments. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Comparison of QoS-Aware Single-Path Vs. Multi-Path Routing Protocols for Image Transmission in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks
    (Elsevier, 2014-08) Macit, Muhammet; Gungor, V. Cagri; Tuna, Gurkan
    Wireless multimedia sensor network (WMSN) applications require strong multimedia communication competence. Therefore, in WMSN applications, it is necessary to use specific mechanisms in order to handle multimedia communication challenges and address desired energy efficiency and reliability goals. Nevertheless, the existing communication protocols are not suitable for the communication challenges and the desired goals. In this respect, specific mechanisms for prioritization, link-quality estimation and multi-path selection can be employed by quality of service (QoS)-aware routing protocols to meet the reliability and delay requirements of WMSN applications. In this study a novel approach is proposed to set different reliability values for image packets for image transmission in WMSNs. Using this prioritization, important parts of an image are assigned high priority and take priority during data transmission. In order to evaluate the proposed approach, the performance of single-path and multi-path QoS-aware routing protocols has been investigated for WMSN-based image transmission applications. Specifically, comparative performance analysis of single-path routing and multi-path routing in image transmission have been conducted in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), average delay, reachability, and control overhead. As proven by the results of the performance evaluations in this study, multi-path routing is better than single-path routing in terms of reliability. On the other hand, at high traffic loads, multi-path routing may perform worse in terms of delay due to its associated overhead. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
