Abstract

Flow against pipeline leakage and the pipe network sudden burst pipe to pipeline leakage flow for the application objects, an energy-efficient real-time scheduling scheme is designed extensively used in pipeline leak monitoring. The proposed scheme can adaptively adjust the network rate in real-time and reduce the cell loss rate, so that it can efficiently avoid the traffic congestion. The recent evolution of wireless sensor networks has yielded a demand to improve energy-efficient scheduling algorithms and energy-efficient medium access protocols. This paper proposes an energy-efficient real-time scheduling scheme that reduces power consumption and network errors on pipeline flux leak monitoring networks. The proposed scheme is based on a dynamic modulation scaling scheme which can scale the number of bits per symbol and a switching scheme which can swap the polling schedule between channels. Built on top of EDF scheduling policy, the proposed scheme enhances the power performance without violating the constraints of real-time streams. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme enhances fault-tolerance and reduces power consumption. Furthermore, that Network congestion avoidance strategy with an energy-efficient real-time scheduling scheme can efficiently improve the bandwidth utilization, TCP friendliness and reduce the packet drop rate in pipeline flux leak monitoring networks.
