Forest Fire Detection Utilizing ACO in Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

Natural disasters have expanded due to man recently being senseless and with the impacts or effects of the damages they caused on the nature. These factors which adversely influence the ecosystem in the world have been noticed and the hitches are needed to be forestalled. As known, fires are the leading of these disasters. The majority of the fires are triggered by the environmental causes despite the fact that minority of them are self-triggered. To prevent fires many different safety systems have been developed. Among these systems, Wireless Sensor Networks stand out with their ease of use and low cost. In this study implementation of systems for keeping track of fires in a certain area with Wireless Sensor Networks has been discussed. The system utilizes data identified with the residual battery energy of sensor nodes to increase or decrease the range of transmission of sensor nodes and relocation scheme for the sink node in network. Some numerical and theoretical calculations are given to demonstrate that our proposed system is utilized to reduce the energy consumption in network of the remote framework essentially.
