A Tracking-Assisted Routing Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) offer much promise for target tracking and environmental monitoring. While many WSN routing protocols have been proposed to date, most of these focus on the mobility of observers and assume that targets are fixed. However, in reality, many applications require for sensing data to be propagated from multiple mobile targets to multiple mobile observers. In addition, WSNs often operate under strict energy constraints, and therefore reducing energy dissipation is also an important issue. In this paper, we present a grid-based routing scheme known as TRENS. First, we address the issue of the WSN comprising multiple mobile targets and observers—with TRENS being the first scheme of its kind to use tracking technology to increase the efficiency of routing procedures in the context of dynamic topology. Next, we introduce a shortcutting approach to resolve energy issues by optimizing routing paths and thus decreasing communication costs and latency. Finally, we conduct extensive simulations to show how TRENS conserves energy and performs better than other grid-based schemes.

A Distributed Secure Data Collection Scheme via Chaotic Compressed Sensing in Wireless Sensor Networks

Motivated by chaos technology and compressed sensing, we propose a distributed secure data collection scheme via chaotic compressed sensing in wireless sensor networks. The chaotic compressed sensing is applied to the encrypted compression of sensory data for sensor node and the data acquisition for whole sensory in wireless sensor networks. The proposed scheme is suitable for long-term and large scale wireless sensor networks with energy efficiency, network lifetime and security. A sensing matrix generation algorithm and active node matrix algorithm based on chaos sequence are proposed to ensure the secure and efficient transmission of sensor packets. The secret key crack, forgery, hijack jamming and replay attacks on the proposed algorithm are evaluated to show the robustness of this scheme. Simulations and real data examples are also given to show that the proposed scheme can ensure the secure data acquisition in wireless sensor networks efficiently.

A Hybrid Trust Management Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of wireless small sensor nodes deployed in the terrain for continuous observation of physical or environmental conditions. The data collected from the WSN is used for making decisions. The condition for making critical decision is to assure the trustworthiness of the data generated from sensor nodes. However, the approaches for scoring the sensed data alone is not enough in WSN since there is an interdependency between node and data item. If the overall trust score of the network is based on one trust component, then the network might be misguided. In this work, we propose the hybrid approach to address the issue by assigning the trust score to data items and sensor nodes based on data quality and communication trust respectively. The proposed hybrid trust management scheme (HTMS) detects the data fault with the help of temporal and spatial correlations. The correlation metric and provenance data are used to score the sensed data. The data trust score is utilized for making decision. The communication trust and provenance data are used to evaluate the trust score of intermediate nodes and source node. If the data item is reliable enough to make critical decisions, a reward is given by means of adding trust score to the intermediate nodes and source node. A punishment is given by reducing the trust score of the source and intermediate nodes, if the data item is not reliable enough to make critical decisions. Result shows that the proposed HTMS detects the malicious, faulty, selfish node and untrustworthy data.     

一种无状态的传感器网络密钥预分配方案

 在无线传感器网络中,节点被敌方捕获以后将泄露节点内存储的群组密钥等秘密信息,所以需要建立一种安全高效的群组密钥管理系统来及时对被捕获节点进行撤销,以保证无线传感器网络中群组通信的安全.提出一种基于逻辑密钥树结构的密钥预分配方案,群组控制者和密钥服务器(GCKS)为逻辑密钥树中每一逻辑节点分配一个密钥集,每一sensor节点对应一个叶节点,以及一条从该叶节点到根节点的路径,GCKS将该路径上所有节点的密钥植入sensor节点.节点撤销时,GCKS将逻辑密钥树分成互不相连的子树,利用子树中sensor节点的共享密钥进行群组密钥的更新.分析表明本方案满足无状态性,以及正确性、群组密钥保密性、前向保密性和后向保密性等安全性质,具有较低的存储、通信和计算开销,适用于无线传感器网络环境.     

A Two-Layer Key Establishment Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks

In a large scale sensor network, it is infeasible to assign a unique Transport Layer Key (TLK) for each pair of nodes to provide the end-to-end security due to the huge memory cost per node. Thus, conventional key establishment schemes follow a key predistribution approach to establish a Link Layer Key (LLK) infrastructure between neighboring nodes and rely on multihop paths to provide the end-to-end security. Their drawbacks include vulnerability to the node compromise attack, large memory cost, and energy inefficiency in the key establishment between neighboring nodes. In this paper, we propose a novel key establishment scheme, called LAKE, for sensor networks. LAKE uses a t-degree trivariate symmetric polynomial to facilitate the establishment of both TLKs and LLKs between sensor nodes in a two-dimensional space, where each node can calculate direct TLKs and LLKs with some logically neighboring nodes and rely on those nodes to negotiate indirect TLKs and LLKs with other nodes. Any two end nodes can negotiate a TLK on demand directly or with the help of only one intermediate node, which can be determined in advance. As for the LLK establishment, LAKE is more secure under the node compromise attack with much less memory cost than conventional solutions. Due to the location-based deployment, LAKE is also energy efficient in that each node has direct LLKs with most neighbors without spending too much energy on the establishment of indirect LLKs with neighbors through multihop routing.

A Distributed Node Localization Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks

A distributed node localization scheme for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is presented in this paper, and it includes three generic phases: (1) determine node-beacon distances, (2) compute node positions, and (3) refine the positions. Different from previous researches, we propose an algorithm combination Min–max + LI for the position derivation and SD method for the refinement in our scheme. Simulation shows that our proposed scheme can perform more robust than some representative distributed node localization schemes presented in previous researches in terms of the trade-off among accuracy, coverage, computation cost, and communication overhead.     

Adaptive Secure Transmission for Wireless Powered Communication Networks

This paper investigates secure transmission in a wireless powered communication network(WPCN)with an energy harvesting(EH)source configured with multiple antennas.In the WPCN,the EH source harvests energy from the radio frequency(RF)signals broadcasted by a power beacon(PB),and purely relies on the harvested energy to communicate with the destination in the presence of passive eavesdroppers.It is noteworthy that the RF-EH source is equipped with a finite energy storage to accumulate the harvested energy for the future usage.Moreover,due to energy-constraint and complexitylimitation,the multi-antenna source is only configured with a single RF-chain.To enhance the security for the WPCN,we propose two adaptive transmission schemes,i.e.,energy-aware transmit antenna selection(EATAS)and energy-aware differential spatial modulation(EADSM).According to the energy status and the channel quality,the source adaptively decides whether to transmit confidential information or harvest RF energy.To evaluate the secrecy performance of the proposed schemes,we first study the evolution of the energy storage,and then derive the analytical expressions of connection outage probability(COP),secrecy outage probability(SOP)and efficient secrecy throughput(EST).Numerical results demonstrate that our proposed schemes outperform the existing schemes,i.e.,time-switching based TAS(TS-TAS)Received:May 19,2020 Revised:Sep.13,2020 Editor:Deli Qiao and accumulate-then-transmit(ATT).And,increasing the transmit power of the PB or the capacity of the source’s energy storage is helpful to improve the secrecy performance.Moreover,there exists an optimal transmission rate for each proposed scheme to achieve best secrecy performance.
