... by varying the number of grids and tests, a comparison is made between the E-GAF and basic GAF (B-GAF) based on the number of dead nodes and energy consumption. Findings The results obtained show that E-GAF is better than the existing basic GAF protocol in terms of energy efficiency and network lifetime...

... effect in some scenarios and usually neglect node energy, which highly affects the energy efficiency performance. The purpose of this paper is to propose a new NC scheduling in a WSN with the intention of maximizing the throughput and minimizing the energy consumption of the network. Design...

...Dinesh Kumar Anguraj; Abul Bashar; R. Nidhya; P.K. Shimna; Renjith V. Ravi Purpose The purpose of this paper is energy consumption and security. To extend the sensor’s life span, saving the energy in a sensor is important. In this paper, biosensors are implanted or suited on the human body...

...Agus Budiyono; Takuma Hino; Takeshi Tsuchiya Purpose The purpose of this research is to propose a novel method to plan paths of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) formations. This is to make use of the aerodynamic advantage of formation flight to reduce energy consumption of UAVs. Design/methodology...
