Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Optimal energy efficient routing in wireless sensor networks with link asymmetry(2012) Ozyer,S.T.; Tavli,B.; Koyuncu,M.In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), link unidirectionality is an unavoidable phenomenon. The existence of unidirectional links can be attributed to several physical factors induced by the transceiver characteristics as well as other environmental phenomena. Transmission power heterogeneity is the dominant paradigm that leads to unidirectionality. In this study, we investigate the effects of transmission power heterogeneity on the lifetime of WSNs through a novel Linear Programming (LP) framework both for networks that utilize only bidirectional links and for those that can use unidirectional links in addition to bidirectional links. Our results show that transmission power heterogeneity can lead to more than 25 % decrease in network lifetime for protocols that can operate only on bidirectional links when compared to a network without any heterogeneity. However, if the use of unidirectional links is also enabled then, the decrease in network lifetime is at most 12 %. © 2012 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 15Linear Wireless Sensor Networks for Cathodic Protection Monitoring of Pipelines(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Kara,A.; Al Imran,M.A.; Karadag,K.This paper presents design considerations and implementation of linear wireless sensor networks (LWSNs) to be used in cathodic protection (CP) monitoring of oil and natural gas pipelines. Firstly, the paper overviews the CP monitoring system of pipelines. Then, it presents the proposed design of LWSN along with some implementation details by providing high-level design illustrations and system parameters. Moreover, some hardware and software design issues and challenges are addressed briefly. LWSN based CP monitoring system is designed for the use in high rise mountains along with deep valleys, and some other extreme or unattended locations where communication infrastructure is unavailable, or there exists limited or interrupted access to the infrastructure. © 2019 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Optimal Energy Efficient Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks With Link Asymmetry(Ieee, 2012) Ozyer, Sibel T.; Tavli, Bulent; Koyuncu, MuratIn Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), link unidirectionality is an unavoidable phenomenon.
