Energy Analysis of Wireless Sensor Networks using RSA and ECC Encryption Method

Wireless Sensor Networks consist of sensor nodes and few powerful control mobile laptops performing activities like routing, data aggregation etc over wireless media. However such kind of environment prone great security threats due to the broadcast nature of the transmission medium. Sensor networks pose unique challenges; traditional security techniques used in traditional networks cannot be applied directly. Therefore this paper investigates cryptography algorithms to showcase energy analysis. The work is implemented over a network created with the help of Java Sun SPOT kit, consisting of sensor node and base station.
