Remote Control and Monitoring Via Internet on Distributed Data Acquisition
No full textThe concept of remote control and monitoring becomes an essential feature in many
systems nowadays. Remote control allows clients to control their homes from any
places, whereas remote monitoring provides the clients the ability to monitor their home
or premises when they are away. The key advantage of this application is client has the
ability to control and monitor their home remotely for security and safety reasons.
From the analysis have been made, in Malaysia, Internet subscribers are growing rapidly
from one year to another. The demand of having remote technology using Internet has
made this area favourable, thus, it is chosen to be studied and discussed extensively in
this thesis. A method of developing a remote control and monitoring system based on
distributed data acquisition using the Internet is established. This system is based on
client/server system in which the host computer where the program is installed, is set as
a server where static IP address is assigned. For the purpose of control and monitoring
tasks, the main program that consists the status of appliances is displayed. It is a user friendly system with good graphical user interface (GUI). The program is developed
using the features in LabVIEW version 6i and its Internet Developer Toolkit. The I/O
modules attached to the appliances are connected directly to the server via serial port.
These I/O modules are based on the concept of data acquisition system (DAQ). The
appliances can be controlled from the client PC by browsing the server website. Some
necessary data are required to be sent to the server. Once the server is running,
monitoring capability is enabled.
Generally, this system is part of smart technology that has been developed to increase
our quality of life, provide convenience environment and also act as an active partner in
managing our busy life. It is a very user-friendly system with good GUI that gives a
client an easy working environment. In a nutshell, this system gives a better security for
the homes owner by giving them an authority to control and monitor their house from
anywhere
A beacon-enabled least-time and energy efficient with one-level data aggregation routing protocol for WSNs using IEEE 802.15.4
No full textThe Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) field of research is an interesting topic in the research community these days, because of its applicability in various fields such as civilian and medical research applications. Due to the resources and energy constraints in WSNs, routing can be considered as one of the most important issues in these networks. Every routing protocol designed for WSNs should be reliable, energy-efficient and prolong the network lifetime. This research proposes a beacon-enabled least-time and energy-efficient routing protocol with one-level data-aggregation using an IEEE 802.15.4 which is suitable for Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Networks as WSNs, because of its low power consuming feature. The proposed protocol is compared to popular ad hoc and WSNs routing protocols i.e., Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector, Dynamic Source Routing, Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector routing, Directed Diffusion and Minimum Cost Forwarding. The propose work is simulated using network simulator 2. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol outperformed the routing protocols in the literature in terms of latency, throughput, average energy consumption and average network lifetime

In this study, cluster-based routing protocols have been reviewed. In addition, the advantages and objectives of this group of routing protocols are sketched out. Furthermore, several cluster-based routing protocols are analyzed in detail and compared according to the several important metrics. In conclusion, the study is summarized and finalized with some directions for future cluster-based routing protocols
Impact of blackhole and Sybil attacks on dynamic windows secured implicit geographic forwarding routing protocol
No full textDynamic windows implicit geographic forwarding (DWSIGF) routing protocol promises a minimal selection on attacker as a hop node. However, it was tested only on blackhole attack with a single optimal attacker. Thus, a thorough investigation was performed to examine whether the protocol is secure against other routing attacks. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of an impact of blackhole and Sybil attacks on the DWSIGF. The analyses on blackhole attack were carried out on a single and multiple attackers using priority selection, random selection, an optimal relay, non-optimal relay, with and without clear to send (CTS) rushing attack. While on the other hand, the Sybil attack's analyses were investigated on the impact of single attacker using optimal and non-optimal relay over increasing traffic loads and growing number of Sybil attackers. The study showed that the DWSIGF promised a superior protection against blackhole/selective forwarding and Sybil attacks with minimum attacker selection and high performance in packet delivery ratio even without inserting any security mechanism in the routing protocol
A review on wormhole attacks in MANET
No full textMobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) refers to a multi-hop packet based wireless network consist of number of mobile nodes which be able to communicate and move simultaneously, without using any fixed infrastructure. MANET’S are self-organizing networks that can be formed and deformed on the fly. A number of different attacks have been discovered that can be launched against MANETs. Wormhole attackis one such attack that has been recently discovered. Wormhole attack is a very severe and challenging attack because of the fact that it can be launched against any protocol and also due to its ability to be effective in case of encrypted traffic. Enormous amount of work has been done towards the mitigation of wormhole attack and its counter measure. In this paper we have summarize the efforts previously done, our aim here is to provide the researchers a platform where they can find a complete reference to all past work done in regards to the wormhole attack. In the review paper we try to know all the detection techniques and use appropriate one or modify previous related works to have better defense mechanism against wormhole attacks
Efficient Secure Routing Mechanisms for the Low-Powered IoT Network: A Literature Review
No full textThe Wireless Sensor Network in the Internet of Things (WSN-IoT) has been flourishing as another global breakthrough over the past few years. The WSN-IoT is reforming the way we live today by spreading through all areas of life, including the dangerous demographic aging crisis and the subsequent decline of jobs. For a company to increase revenues and cost-effectiveness growth should be customer-centered and agile within an organization. WSN-IoT networks have simultaneously faced threats, such as sniffing, spoofing, and intruders. However, WSN-IoT networks are often made up of multiple embedded devices (sensors and actuators) with limited resources that are joined via various connections in a low-power and lossy manner. However, to our knowledge, no research has yet been conducted into the security methods. Recently, a Contiki operating system’s partial implementation of Routing Protocol for Low Power & Lossy Network RPL’s security mechanisms was published, allowing us to evaluate RPL’s security methods. This paper presents a critical analysis of security issues in the WSN-IoT and applications of WSN-IoT, along with network management details using machine learning. The paper gives insights into the Internet of Things in Low Power Networks (IoT-LPN) architecture, research challenges of the Internet of Things in Low Power Networks, network attacks in WSN-IoT infrastructures, and the significant WSN-IoT objectives that need to be accompanied by current WSN-IoT frameworks. Several applied WSN-IoT security mechanisms and recent contributions have been considered, and their boundaries have been stated to be a significant research area in the future. Moreover, various low-powered IoT protocols have been further discussed and evaluated, along with their limitations. Finally, a comparative analysis is performed to assess the proposed work’s performance. The study shows that the proposed work covers a wide range of factors, whereas the rest of the research in the literature is limited

No full textThe Internet of things (IoT) and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been rapidly and tremendously developing recently as computing technologies have brought about a significant revolution. Their applications and implementations can be found all around us, either individually or collaboratively. WSN plays a leading role in developing the general flexibility of industrial resources in terms of increasing productivity in the IoT. The critical principle of the IoT is to make existing businesses sufficiently intelligent to recognize the need for significant fault mitigation and short-cycle adaptation to improve effectiveness and financial profits. This article presents efficiently applied security protocols at the data link layer for WSN and IoT-based frameworks. It outlines the importance of WSN–IoT applications as well as the architecture of WSN in the IoT. Our primary aim is to highlight the research issues and limitations of WSNs related to the IoT. The fundamental goal of this work is to emphasize a suggested architecture linked to WSN–IoT to enhance energy and power consumption, mobility, information transmission, QoS, and security, as well as to present practical solutions to data link layer difficulties for the future using machine learning. Moreover, we present data link layer protocol issues, attacks, limitations, and research gaps for WSN frameworks based on the recent work conducted on the data link layer concerning WSN applications. Current significant issues and challenges pertain to flow control, quality of service (QoS), security, and performance. In the context of the literature, less work has been undertaken concerning the data link layer in WSN and its relation to improved network performance
COMPARATIVE STUDY ON ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN DYNAMIC WINDOW SECURED IMPLICIT GEOGRAPHIC FORWARDING ROUTING PROTOCOL
No full textAn Ideal WSNs should operate with the least possible energy required in order to increase the lifetime of the sensor nodes and at the same time, ensure network connectivity. But the Inherent power limitation makes power-awareness a critical requirement for WSN, this calls for the need to manage energy in sensor nodes. Also In order to ensure successful transmission of data from sensor node source to destination, it becomes necessary to maintain network availability. The network must be resilient to individual node failure which can happen due to zero power posses by the node and due to security attacks posed on the node and the network. Dynamic Window Secured Implicit Geographic Forwarding (DWSIGF) routing protocol has proven to be robust, efficient and resistant to some security attack which causes failure in network availability. However the extent to which energy is consumed in sensor nodes which deploys DWSIGF as its routing protocol has never been mentioned. In this research, we performed a comparative study on energy consumption in DWSIGF routing protocol. Using the first order radio model, we determined the energy consumed in a network. The protocol (DWSIGF) is matched up against its counterpart SIGF as the traffic is increased. Observation shows that DWSIGF due to the variable timing assigned to the CTS collection window, CTS signal fails to reach destination as collection window time expires, thus the need for retransmission. This in turn consumes mor
