Trust and Energy-Efficient Routing for Internet of Things—Energy Evaluation Model

Abstract

The internet of thing (IOT) is an upheaval of traditional internet. It is new revolution that not only allows transmission and exchange of data but also communication between the physical objects in the real world. These heterogeneous devices are pervasive, ubiquitous in nature that changes dynamically and frequently. Mostly, these devices are low-powered devices and have less computation power and capacity. Traditional routing techniques in ad hoc network do not take security and energy into consideration. To extend the lifetime of the network, the energy supply and consumption of the node is an important aspect. The routing of the packet should be as such that even the low-powered devices have the ability to receive and transmit the packet. The presence of malicious node will make the network more susceptible to the different attacks and threat. To overcome this problem, an energy-efficient routing protocol with a centralized controller is integrated with IOT devices.
