Static Network Performance Optimisation Using Dual Interleave Routing Algorithm

Abstract

In the recent years, there is an increasing demand on multi-hop wireless sensor networks (WSN) especially for remote condition and integrity monitoring of oil and gas pipelines. The sensing points are connected through WSN points, known as a wireless communication medium, between the remotely measured locations on a pipeline and a centralised monitoring station, located some distance away. Generally, WSN deployment on a multi-hop linear topology has critical factors that contribute towards overall degrading of network performance proportional to the number of nodes. This is especially true in highly dense networks. In general, such a drawback contributes towards poor network reliability, low network capacity, high latency, and inequality with snowballing effect, increasing in the direction of the destination node. This paper introduces the Dual Interleaving Linear Static Routing (DI-LSR) for a multi-hop linear network with high reliability and efficiency to significantly enhance the overall network performance of a pipeline network. The DI-LSR was tested and analysed according to IEEE 802.11 standard in a various simulation environment for future real-time deployment in a pipeline network. ABSTRAK: Sejak beberapa tahun kebelakangan ini, terdapat permintaan yang drastik pada rangkaian multi-hop sensor wayarles (WSN) terutamanya bagi pemantauan jarak jauh dan integriti saluran paip minyak dan gas. Kesemua unit pengesan antara lokasi disambung melalui satu saluran WSN yang dikenali sebagai medium komunikasi wayarles dan diukur ke stesen pemantauan berpusat. Penempatan WSN pada topologi linear multi-hop mempunyai faktor-faktor penyumbang kepada penurunan prestasi keseluruhan rangkaian yang berkadar dengan jumlah bilangan nod dalam rangkaian yang padat. Secara umum, kelemahan ini adalah penyumbang kepada kebolehpercayaan rangkaian, kapasiti rangkaian rendah, respon rangkaian tinggi dan faktor pendorong kesan ketidaksamaan terhadap nod destinasi. Kajian ini memperkenalkan Dual interleaving Linear Static Routing (DI-LSR) iaitu algoritma jalinan komunikasi cekap bagi mencapai peningkatan ketara keseluruhan prestasi dalam saluran paip rangkaian. DI-LSR telah diuji dan dianalisa dalam pelbagai persekitaran simulasi mengikut piawaian IEEE 802.11 bagi mengatur kedudukan pada masa depan saluran paip rangkaian.

Investigation and Implementation of Beacon Technology for Man Tracking in Oil and Gas Industry

“…Through WSN technology, we can centralise monitoring station and able to facilitate real-time data transfer. As pipelines were widely extended areas, increasing the number of nodes in a linear architecture according to the performance of WSN makes it possible to expand the communication range [15]. However, WSN will result in affecting low throughput, high latency, poor delivery ratio, increase in power consumption and network inequality.…”

DyTE: An Effective Routing Protocol for VANET in Urban Scenarios

“…In DSR [12], a complete list of nodes in sequence is attached in the packet header therefore network overhead is increased. AODV [13] is a reactive and loop-free routing protocol which is still considered relevant [14][15][16]. An optimization in AODV is proposed in [17] by formulating route weight.…”
