It gives the cluster formation technique that
enables the self-organization of local nodes.
A new series of algorithms for adapting clusters
and rotating the cluster head (CH) based on the
centroid position to evenly distribute the energy &
load among all sensor nodes

“Remaining Energy

for wireless sensor

Presents an energy efficient routing
protocol called as Remaining Energy
Based Routing (REB-R).
The idea behind REB-R is to broadcast
the remaining energy of the node along
with the data in the data packet instead of
calculating a parameter related to
remaining energy.
Many protocols were offered
for minimizing the networks
total dissipation of energy.

“Exploiting Sink
Mobility for
Maximizing Sensor
Networks Lfetime”
Proceedings of 38th
Hawaii International
Conference on System
Sciences-2005.
The objective is to maximize the overall lifetime of
the network rather than minimizing the energy
consumption at the nodes.
This model presents sink movement patterns and
simulation time leading to a network lifetime up to
almost five times that obtained with a static Sink.

impact of mobile sink on
network performance such
as network lifetime
enhancement.

17. Research gap identification
1. None of the existing protocols consider the Bottleneck issue.
What is Bottleneck ?
Case I: If nodes residual energy is less than threshold value, Then
i. Node will drop the packet and unable to process the packet
ii. Node becomes bottleneck node.
Case II: If a node is accepting heavy traffic due to its high current energy, it will drop
the packets because of its limited buffer and processing capacity and hence lose its
energy instantly and becomes bottleneck.
2. None of the existing protocol calculates the Packet processing capacity of the node
with respect to residual energy and the buffer.
3. None of the existing protocol discusses about the EBRS of the mobile sink
(Neighbour node) and its EBRS.
9/10/2020 17
20. Problem Formulation
The Performance of the Existing work can be enhanced by doing following
improvements.
1. Mitigating the Packet drop due to energy and buffer.
2. Detecting the Intermediate nodes becoming bottleneck.
3. Exploiting sink mobility
Thus the aim is to combine both the prevention of bottleneck node and the sink
mobility in a single process to design and implement the proposed routing
protocol “Energy-Efficient Routing Protocol for enhancing network lifetime and
performance in Wireless Sensor Networks” to enhance the Network Lifetime
and improve the Performance in WSNs.

2) On page 61, fig 3.5 is similar to fig 1.4 of page 15; hence the author
can quote the same fig1.4 in this chapter also instead of repeating.
Similarly on page 66, fig3.6 & fig3.7 both are similar, if there is any
reason give the justification if not remove anyone?
Answer to the comment: The chapter-3 of the dissertation has been
substantially revised, taking adjudicator's comments into account.
The figures presented at page numbers 61 & 15 explains about the
node’s buffer internal mechanism about packet operation. The figure
presented gives the idea about Packet loss due to Buffer overflow on
both pages (61 & 15), that’s why we presented the figure in both
sections. So as suggested, we quoted the same as figure 1.4 from
page 15 (Chapter-1) in this chapter also instead of repeating.
Similarly, on page 66, out of the figures 3.6 and 3.7, one figure is
removed (please refer page 61).

justification author needs to incorporate or else repeated matter should be
removed?
Answer to the comment: The chapter-4 of the dissertation has been substantially

page numbers 75 and 76 explains the multi-objective mechanism about packet
operation which is removed. Similarly equations 4.5, 4.7 are similar to equation 3.6
which is also removed. The table presented at 4.3 also removed, because it seems
that the information given in that table is previously there in table 3.1 (from
Chapter-3). So as suggested, we quoted the same instead of repeating the content.

[B] Necessary recommendations need to be addressed at the time of
Defendant:
Chapter-3
1) According to which standardization, selection of various parameters
like a Packet lifetime as 200ms, departure & arrival rate as 0.02 and
0.0166, and average packet number arrived as 25-50 has made?
Answer to the comment: According to ITU G.114, acceptable real-time
traffic end to end delay is about 150ms and practically 200ms.To get a
better understanding of the proposed algorithm, we consider the
different attributes to each intermediate node such as battery power
and buffer capacity, input packet arrival rate, and output departure
rate. Other attributes such as receiving power and transmission
power kept as constant.

90. Action Taken Report On
Energy-Efficient Routing Protocol for enhancing network lifetime and
performance in Wireless Sensor Networks
2) How can the power or energy of a proper intermediate node be computed or
determine, which is capable of handling the traffic without loss of data packet or
mitigation of packet loss throughout the transmission process?
Answer to the comment: A designed routing protocol, i.e., "Energy- Efficient Routing
Protocol for enhancing network lifetime and performance in Wireless Sensor
Networks.," is developed by considering some assumption and network model.
One of the assumptions that made are, the nodes in a network consisting of
hardware to provide its residual energy information at any given time. The working
process of the hardware is out of the scope of our work. Further, the hardware of
the node needs to support the information as follows:
– Provide remaining energy information
– Suitable low pass filter to compute the weighted moving average
– RED gateway provides queue information.

Energy-Efficient Routing Protocol for enhancing network lifetime and
performance in Wireless Sensor Networks
3) What is the reason behind, to compute the average queue size and
average waiting time to design a model for detecting the status of the
node regarding packet loss? Why not the maximum values?
Answer to the comment: Every node contains the RED gateway to
compute the average queue length of its buffer. It is a low pass filter
work on the principle of the exponential weighted moving average.
The algorithm for computing the average queue size determines the
degree of robustness that will be allowed in the gateway queue.
Instead of taking maximum values, we consider the average to
prevent the packet drop in advance by setting threshold value, as the
average queue size exceeds a preset threshold, the gateway drops
the packet.

performance in Wireless Sensor Networks
Chapter-5
1) How can threshold value be provided or chosen, decide the node
priority while running the algorithm during the routing process?
Answer to the comment: Threshold values of the nodes are computed
based on the sensitivity of network and initial network distribution
condition. We computed this value under energy with less traffic and
under energy with fewer traffic conditions. The TTL value is decided
by the type of communication traffic, and we are considering the TTL
value as 200ms since we use CBR (constant bit rate) traffic in our
proposed network.
