Abstract

In the last few decades, the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) paradigm has received huge interest from the industry and academia. Wireless sensor networking is used in various fields like weather monitoring, wildfire detection/monitoring, battlefield surveillance, security systems, military applications, etc. Moreover, various networking and technical issues still need to be addressed for successful deployment of WSN, especially power management. In this chapter, the various methods of saving energy in sensor nodes and a method by which energy can be saved are discussed with emphasis on various energy saving protocols and techniques, and the improvement in the Performance of Clustered WSN by using Multi-tier Clustering. By using a two-tier architecture in the clustering and operation of sensor nodes, an increase in the network lifetime of the WSN is gained. Since this clustering approach has better results in term of energy savings and organizing the network, the main objective of this chapter is to describe power management techniques, two-tier architecture, clustering approaches, and network models to save the energy of a sensor network.
