Interference-Resistant Communication framework for Sensor Nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are becoming increasingly important for various aspects of modern communication. However, the lack of reliable and securecommunication between nodes of the WSN often hinders the realization of many of its potential applications. In order to overcome these issues, we propose an interference-resistant Communication Framework for Sensor Nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (IRCF-WSN) which is based on the idea of combining different types of compatible transmission schemes to establish a secure and reliable communication link between nodes. The proposed framework aims to provide a secure and reliable connection between nodes of the WSN irrespective of the interference environment. In order to accomplish this goal, the framework combines several interference-resistant techniques like frequency hopping, spread spectrum, and beamforming to form multiple channels of connectivity whichare subsequently used for communication. Additionally, the framework also utilizes a novel routing algorithm to ensure that the most secure and reliable path is chosen for the communication. Simulation results indicate that using the proposed framework, the communication performance of the WSN can be improved significantly compared to existing solutions.
