Abstract

The rapid growth of wireless services in recent years is an indication that considerable value is placed on wireless networks. Wireless devices have most utility when they can be used anywhere at any time. Yet one of the greatest challenges is limited energy supply. In the recent years, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has gained good attention from both the research community and actual users. As sensor nodes are generally battery-energized devices, the network lifetime of WSN is widespread to sensible times. Therefore, energy management is one of the most challenging problems in wireless sensor networks. Recent research efforts on these problems deal with techniques during the process of node deployment, searching the target node, data collection and communication. WSN advocates all these techniques for energy management. In this paper various energy conservation methods to be analyzed. Keywords: Wireless Sensor Networks, Energy, Battery, Duty cycle, Sink, Mobility, Data
