However,energy depletion and hardware malfunctions can lead to node failures in WSNs. The industrial environment can also impact the wireless channel transmission, leading to network reliability problems, even with tightly coupled control and data planes in traditional networks, which obviously also enhances network management cost and complexity. In this paper, we introduce a new software defined network(SDN), and modify this network to propose a framework called the improved software defined wireless sensor network(improved SD-WSN). This proposed framework can address the following issues. 1) For a large scale heterogeneous network, it solves the problem of network management and smooth merging of a WSN into IIo T. 2) The network coverage problem is solved which improves the network reliability. 3) The framework addresses node failure due to various problems, particularly related to energy consumption.Therefore, it is necessary to improve the reliability of wireless sensor networks, by developing certain schemes to reduce energy consumption and the delay time of network nodes under IIo T conditions. Experiments have shown that the improved approach significantly reduces the energy consumption of nodes and the delay time, thus improving the reliability of WSN.展开更多

Meanwhile,the well-known Open Flow-based SDN got a lot of attention. But it can't provide a flexible and effective network resource description method.As an open programmable technology, For CES(Forwarding and Control Element Separation)has also been concerned. However, For CES is confined within a single network node and cannot be applied to the entire network. This paper proposes a new architecture — ForS A(ForC ESbased SDN architecture). The architecture is added a configuration layer based on the traditional SDN architecture, which solves the problem that the northbound interface is not clear between the application layer and the control layer in the SDN architecture. ForS A also implements the compatibility within various forwarding devices in the forwarding layer.展开更多

However, proliferating mobile demands lead to several intractable challenges that MWN has to face. Software-defined network is expected as a promising way for future network and has captured growing attention. Network virtualization is an essential feature in software-defined wireless network(SDWN), and it brings two new entities, physical networks and virtual networks. Accordingly, efficiently assigning spectrum resource to virtual networks is one of the fundamental problems in SDWN. Directly orienting towards the spectrum resource allocation problem, firstly, the fluctuation features of virtual network requirements in SDWN are researched, and the opportunistic spectrum sharing method is introduced to SDWN. Then, the problem is proved as NP-hardness. After that, a dynamic programming and graph theory based spectrum sharing algorithm is proposed.Simulations demonstrate that the opportunistic spectrum sharing method conspicuously improves the system performance up to around 20%–30% in SDWN, and the proposed algorithm achieves more efficient performance.展开更多
