Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 12Lifetime Analysis of Energy Harvesting Underwater Wireless Sensor Nodes(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017-05) Erdem, Huseyin Emre; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıThe application of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) in underwater environments poses various challenges. One of the most important problems is the limited lifetime of underwater sensor nodes. Considering how challenging and costly it is to change the batteries of sensor nodes in underwater environments, energy harvesting methods are rendered as a promising solution. In this study, the contributions of energy harvesting via turbine and hydrophone harvesters as well as schedule and trigger driven energy management methods on node lifetime have been analyzed. Performance evaluations have been conducted considering real-life conditions, e.g. flow rates, of Istanbul Bosphorus Strait. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 54Energy Harvesting and Battery Technologies for Powering Wireless Sensor Networks(Elsevier Inc., 2016) Tuna, Gürkan; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıDue to the advances in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), factory and plant process automation systems are being reinvented. WSN-based industrial applications often cost much less than wired networks in both the short and long terms; automation engineers are empowering existing solutions with the new capabilities of WSNs. On the other hand, since industrial wireless sensor networks (IWSNs) consist of thousands of nodes, the problem of powering the nodes is critical. Power to the nodes is usually provided through primary batteries and this necessitates replacement when the batteries are depleted. However, the replacement may not be cost-effective or even feasible in most industrial applications.Though advancements in integrated circuit technologies help in saving more energy by leading to lower energy consumption levels, they do not eliminate the use of battery power. In this regard, energy harvesting technologies play a key role in extending the battery lifetime of the nodes. Wireless sensor nodes within industrial plants can operate from energy harvested from available energy sources such as heat, mechanical motion or vibration, indoor lighting, electromagnetic fields, and air flow. In this chapter, a review of existing energy storage technologies and various energy-harvesting techniques is given. The chapter then discusses open research issues in these topics. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Book Part Cognitive Radio Networks for Smart Grid Communications: Potential Applications, Protocols, and Research Challenges(CRC Press, 2017-12-19) Κogias, DImitrios G.; Tuna, Gürkan; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıA smart grid (SG) is the next generation of power grid, where transmission, distribution, power generation, utilization, and management are fully upgraded to improve efficiency, agility, environmental friendliness, economy, security, and reliability [1-4]. It offers two-way communication between the base stations and power generation sites [2-5], and optimizes the overall system performance by taking the advantage of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) [6-13], using smart sensor devices, and implementing renewable energy solutions. Since SG consists of many different applications with different communication and quality of service (QoS) requirements, it involves heterogeneous communication technologies based on a multitier communication infrastructure. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 12Ambient Energy Harvesting for Low Powered Wireless Sensor Network Based Smart Grid Applications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-04) Faheem, Muhammed Yasir; Ashraf, Muhammad Waqar; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Raza, Basit; Ngadi, M. A.; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıLimited battery lifetime is one of the most critical issues for wireless sensor networks (WSNs)-based smart grid (SG) applications. Recently, ambient energy harvesting (AEH) has been considered to significantly improve the network lifetime of the WSNs-based SG applications. However, extracting a significant amount of energy from the ambient energy resource due to time varying links quality affected by power grid environments is the main issue for WSNs-based applications in SG. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-source energy harvesting mechanisms for WSNs-based SG applications. The propose hybrid ambient energy harvesting framework through the designed circuitry successfully harvests massive power density by capturing the radial electric field (EF) and ambient radio frequency WiFi 2.4GHz band signals present in the vicinity of 500kV power grid station. The design energy harvesting schemes have been implemented on the recently developed routing protocol for SG applications. The experiments using EstiNet9.0, demonstrate that the designed framework is efficient in terms of energy harvesting capabilities to enable a long-lasting lifetime of the WSNs-based smart grid applications. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 29A Hybrid Energy Harvesting Framework for Energy Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks Based Smart Grid Applications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-06) Yildiz, Huseyin Ugur; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı; Tavli, BülentIn smart grid applications, Wireless Sensor Net-works (WSNs) which consist of battery limited sensor nodes are used on critical equipments of power distribution grids for monitoring purposes. WSN nodes have tight energy constraints hence it is important to reduce the energy consumption of sensor nodes due to harsh propagation characteristics of smart grid environment. One possible way to reduce the energy consumption is to utilize transmission power control where transmission powers are adjusted according to channel conditions. Another technique is to employ energy harvesting schemes to provide additional power for nodes by using environmental energy sources. Solar and electromagnetic energies are two possible environmental energy sources in outdoor substation environments. Solar energy can be efficiently exploited in a sunny day. On the other hand, electromagnetic energy can be used at any time. In this work, we propose a hybrid energy harvesting model that exploits both solar and electromagnetic energies and develop a Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) method to minimize the energy dissipation of sensor nodes. By using the MIP framework, we quantify the impact of the proposed hybrid energy harvesting model as well as transmission power control on the energy saving of nodes. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Akıllı Şebeke Uygulamaları için Pille Çalışan Duyarga Düğümlerinin Yaşam Süresi Analizi(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016-05) Eris, Cigdem; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı; Boluk, Pinar SarisarayWireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) enable smart grids where sensor nodes monitor and control the important parameters of power grid components. However, energy-aware communication protocols should be developed to extend network lifetime of WSNs in smart grid environments. In this study, the lifetime of wireless sensor nodes has been analyzed for various smart grid environments, such as 500 kV substation, main power control room, and underground network transformer vaults. In addition, the effects of different operation modes of sensor nodes on node lifetime have been reviewed. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
