Internship: Performance Evaluation of Routing Algorithms in Sensor Networks.

Introduction

Developments in the wireless technologies are opening up new application avenues in the automation of traditionally labour intensive work. With the infinite number of small and cheap devices available today, the question remains, how should they communicate in an effective manner? In fact, not only it is important that these devices should communicate in an efficient manner but also independent and irrespective of any fixed infrastructure. Nevertheless, sensor networks are different from simple ad hoc networks, as sensor networks are designed for much longer life time frame. Eventually, data collected by each device should be communicated to the Base Station which might be fixed or mobile.

Role & Scope

Wireless sensor network research has entered a phase, where real time experiences are quite significant. This internship proposes to investigate performance issues in sensor networks with parameters such as data rate, topology, transmission power, etc.

  • An intern will use sensor nodes to conduct experiments and record measurements
  • Evaluation of Implicit and Explicit acknowledgements for routing Algorithms.
  • Performance of CSMA-CA in the dense sensor network.
  • Duration 3-6 months.
  • Keywords:- Zigbee Sensor Nodes, IEEE 802.15.4

Requirements:

  • Candidate should have majors in Computer Science.
  • C, Java, UNIX (intermediate), knowledge of CSMA is plus.
  • Candidate should be autonomous and be able to carryout its work independently.
  • To successfully complete the internship, candidate must submit its report within 2 weeks of ending the internship period.

This project presents an opportunity for a student to understand real time issues and problems while deploying sensor/ ad hoc networks.

Remuneration:

400 euros per month + Accommodation in student hostel.

Conditions:

Candidate must arrange for its travel to France and should take care of its other Visa related expenses.

Visa must be asked for, at least two months in advance.
