Securing Sensor Routes: Trustworthy and Load-Balanced Strategies
摘要
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are becoming more and more essential in many areas of modern life, such as air pollution management, healthcare, water quality monitoring, and disaster prevention. WSNs in these applications are data-centric, meaning great performance is required regarding data throughput and network lifetime. To ensure efficiency, real-time data processing during transmission frequently necessitates small delays [1, 2]. Improving the overall efficiency of wireless communication networks, such as WSNs, requires the development of reliable and efficient routing protocols. These protocols are essential for streamlining data transmission and optimizing network operations, contributing to various successful WSN applications [3–6].
