🔬 Research & Publications

Journal Publications

“An Energy‐Efficient and Balanced Clustering Approach for Improving Throughput of Wireless Sensor Networks”
International Journal of Communication Systems, Wiley Online Library | October 31, 2019
This research proposes a cluster head selection algorithm that covers all parts of the sensing area in a balanced manner, saving significant energy. The work introduces a capture effect–based intracluster communication mechanism and uses a Näive Bayes classifier to adapt window size dynamically. Simulation results using OMNeT++ demonstrate improved network lifetime, energy efficiency, and throughput compared to LEACH and LEACH-MAC protocols.

“Minimizing the Adverse Effects of Asymmetric Links: A Novel Cooperative Asynchronous MAC Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks”
MDPI Sensors | May 26, 2019
This work introduces COASYM-MAC, a cooperative asynchronous MAC protocol for WSNs that addresses link asymmetry challenges in receiver-initiated MAC protocols. The protocol automatically selects optimal helper nodes and uses alternative paths to reduce link asymmetry, achieving significant performance improvements in energy consumption, average delay, and packet reception ratio.

Conference Publications

“COASYM-MAC: A Cooperative Asymmetric MAC Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network”
9th International Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering (ICECE 2016) | December 22, 2016
Proposed a cooperative MAC protocol that effectively reduces asymmetry by exploiting alternative paths between nodes with link asymmetry, demonstrating significant improvements over Asym-MAC protocol.

“An Efficient Cluster Head Selection Strategy for Provisioning Fairness in Wireless Sensor Networks”
IEEE International Women in Engineering (WIE) Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering (WIECON-ECE 2016) | December 19, 2016
