A Survey on Clustering Algorithms and Proposed Architectural Framework for Border Surveillance System in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

– Border Surveillance system is a major security issue in all nations. In border surveillance systems, wireless sensor networks are one of the most important technologies which are going to play a vital role in future research. Researchers address the variety of challenges and spread the deployment in large areas in real time. In this paper, an overview of the border surveillance system their applied technologies, and the challenges faced during the deployment are discussed. An architectural framework for the border surveillance system is developed and presented. A comprehensive review is conducted with different routing protocols based on the node’s mobility, node’s localization, routing metrics, delay, throughput, energy efficiency, and their network lifetime. Simulation results of various protocols are conducted and presented. This work is intended to identify and focus on recent protocol developments and also opens research issues that need to be investigated in the future.
