Prediction of Sensor Lifetime in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Fuzzy Logic

Cluster formation and cluster head selection are important problems in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and can drastically affect the network's communication energy dissipation. Moreover, in WSNs, the bad usage of the energy shortens the operation time of sensors and consequently the network lifetime. In this work, we propose a fuzzy-based simulation system for WSNs, in order to calculate the lifetime of a sensor by considering the remaining battery power, sleep time rate and transmission time rate. We evaluate the system by MATLAB simulations and show that it has a good behaviour for measuring sensor lifetime.
