Reliability improvement and the importance of power consumption optimization in wireless sensor networks

In this paper, an algorithm aiming for reliability in wireless sensor networks (WSN) will be discussed. Reliability optimization in WSN is obviously an important problem, because a more reliable network can secure a correct, durable, and complete communication. Power consumption optimization in WSN is highly necessary in order to have a reliable sensor network because consumption of power by WSN is directly related with its durability and a more durable WSN secures more reliability. Therefore, if we can minimize the power consumption of the WSN, we can achieve the desired goal. In this paper, a new hybrid algorithm is proposed for solving the minimization problem of WSN power consumption.
