energy efficiency, and error rates provides insights into their strengths and
limitations. Differences among these protocols are observed in terms of
clustering parameters like node deployment, heterogeneity, location
awareness, and cluster head mobility, highlighting the importance of
selecting the most suitable protocol based on specific network
requirements.
● Here's a brief explanation of each protocol mentioned:
Conclusion
The importance of wireless body area networks for the safety of miners is
discussed in this paper. This study compares and discusses well-known
routing protocols. WBANs are used to monitor the health of miners and
the state of the field in real time. Wireless mesh network routing
approaches are highly helpful in the case of mines since the operational
fields are quickly deployed, inexpensive, and temporary. Static nodes are
the intended use of WMN. Since miners travel around a much and WMN
uses a lot of power, it is not helpful for their connectivity.
The research paper discusses the use of wireless sensor networks (WSN) in coal
mines. Wireless sensor networks play a crucial role in enhancing safety and
monitoring in coal mines. Several research studies have been conducted to
improve routing protocols in these networks to optimize communication and
data transmission in underground environments. This summary will discuss the
key findings and advancements in routing protocols for wireless sensor
networks in coal mines, focusing on topics such as the LEACH protocol,
maximum lifetime routing strategies, energy balancing, multi-sink networks,
level routing algorithms, and hierarchical routing protocols.
The Paper also highlights the difficulties that WSN in coal mines faces, such as
significant latency times for data transfer, uneven energy use, and limited
network lifetimes. It also explores the hierarchical routing protocol utilized in
coal mines, emphasizing the clustering mechanisms and cluster head selection
optimization techniques.
The paper discusses the use of optimization algorithms such as particle swarm
optimization (PSO), ant colony algorithm, and fruit fly algorithm (FOA) for the
hierarchical routing protocol in clustering mechanisms. These algorithms are
considered effective for optimizing the cluster head election method and
controlling cluster range in the hierarchical routing protocol used in wireless
sensor networks in mines.
