Energy Consumption-aware Relaying Node Placement in Wireless Sensor Networks
in some applications of wireless sensor networks,the sensing nodes is so far away from base station that relaying nodes must be employed to forward data.Some relaying nodes use up their power early because they have heavier traffic load,which affects the network lifetime.This paper proposes the multi-phase placement strategy of relaying nodes,which implements an even energy consumption distribution among different nodes.And then,proposes two strategies to reduce the number of relay nodes: streaming data strategy and data pooling strategy.
