Abstract

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) use energy for their sensing, computation, and communication. To increase the lifetime of the network, sensor nodes are equipped with energy storage devices. Recharging of their batteries is not possible in most applications. Therefore, energy consumption needs to be monitored and limited to increase the energy consumption performance of the network. The communication module uses the highest amount of energy in a WSN. Among several methods offered to reduce the energy consumption, data compression has the highest effect on the energy usage by reducing the number of bits to be broadcasted. This paper illustrates an energy consumption reduction in WSN by compression data. Text data were tested one time with original size and one more time with compressed size with different routing algorithms in Wireless Sensor Network.
