Abstract

The key issue of wireless sensor networks is to balance the energy costs of the entire network, to enhance the robustness of the entire sensor network. Sensor networks as a special kind of complex network, in particular, environmental constraints, and more from the traditional complex networks, such as Internet networks, ecological networks, social networks, is to introduce a way of wireless sensor networks way of complex networks theory and analytical method, the key lies in, which is a successful model of complex network theory and analysis methods, more suitable for the application of wireless sensor networks, in order to achieve certain characteristics of some wireless sensor networks to optimize the network. Considering multi-hop transmission of sensor network, this paper has proposed a maximum restriction on the communication radius of each sensor node; in order to improve the efficiency of energy consumption and maintain the sparsely of the entire network, this paper has also added a minimum restriction on the communication radius of each sensor node to the improved model; to balance the energy consumption of the entire network, The simulation results show that proposed improvements to the entire network more robust to random failure and energy costs are more balanced and reasonable. This is more applicable to wireless sensor networks.
