Integrated Clustering and Routing Design and Triangle Path Optimization for UAV-Assisted Wireless Sensor Networks

With the development of the Internet of Things(IoT),it requires better performance from wireless sensor networks(WSNs),such as larger coverage,longer lifetime,and lower latency.However,a large amount of data generated from monitoring and long-distance transmission places a heavy burden on sensor nodes with the limited battery power.For this,we investigate an unmanned aerial vehicles assisted mobile wireless sensor network(UAV-assisted WSN)to prolong the network lifetime in this paper.Specifically,we use UAVs to assist the WSN in collecting data.In the current UAV-assisted WSN,the clustering and routing schemes are determined sequentially.However,such a separate consideration might not maximize the lifetime of the whole WSN due to the mutual coupling of clustering and routing.To efficiently prolong the lifetime of the WSN,we propose an integrated clustering and routing scheme that jointly optimizes the clustering and routing together.In the whole network space,it is intractable to efficiently obtain the optimal integrated clustering and routing scheme.Therefore,we propose the Monte-Las search strategy based on Monte Carlo and Las Vegas ideas,which can generate the chain matrix to guide the algorithm to find the solution faster.Unnecessary point-to-point collection leads to long collection paths,so a triangle optimization strategy is then proposed that finds a compromise path to shorten the collection path based on the geometric distribution and energy of sensor nodes.To avoid the coverage hole caused by the death of sensor nodes,the deployment of mobile sensor nodes and the preventive mechanism design are indispensable.An emergency data transmission mechanism is further proposed to reduce the latency of collecting the latency-sensitive data due to the absence of UAVs.Compared with the existing schemes,the proposed scheme can prolong the lifetime of the UAVassisted WSN at least by 360%,and shorten the collection path of UAVs by 56.24%.

Optimization algorithms play a pivotal role in enhancing the performance and efficiency of systems across various scientific and engineering disciplines.To enhance the performance and alleviate the limitations of the Northern Goshawk Optimization(NGO)algorithm,particularly its tendency towards premature convergence and entrapment in local optima during function optimization processes,this study introduces an advanced Improved Northern Goshawk Optimization(INGO)algorithm.This algorithm incorporates a multifaceted enhancement strategy to boost operational efficiency.Initially,a tent chaotic map is employed in the initialization phase to generate a diverse initial population,providing high-quality feasible solutions.Subsequently,after the first phase of the NGO’s iterative process,a whale fall strategy is introduced to prevent premature convergence into local optima.This is followed by the integration of T-distributionmutation strategies and the State Transition Algorithm(STA)after the second phase of the NGO,achieving a balanced synergy between the algorithm’s exploitation and exploration.This research evaluates the performance of INGO using 23 benchmark functions alongside the IEEE CEC 2017 benchmark functions,accompanied by a statistical analysis of the results.The experimental outcomes demonstrate INGO’s superior achievements in function optimization tasks.Furthermore,its applicability in solving engineering design problems was verified through simulations on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)trajectory planning issues,establishing INGO’s capability in addressing complex optimization challenges.

Optimizing Connections:Applied Shortest Path Algorithms for MANETs

This study is trying to address the critical need for efficient routing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks(MANETs)from dynamic topologies that pose great challenges because of the mobility of nodes.Themain objective was to delve into and refine the application of the Dijkstra’s algorithm in this context,a method conventionally esteemed for its efficiency in static networks.Thus,this paper has carried out a comparative theoretical analysis with the Bellman-Ford algorithm,considering adaptation to the dynamic network conditions that are typical for MANETs.This paper has shown through detailed algorithmic analysis that Dijkstra’s algorithm,when adapted for dynamic updates,yields a very workable solution to the problem of real-time routing in MANETs.The results indicate that with these changes,Dijkstra’s algorithm performs much better computationally and 30%better in routing optimization than Bellman-Ford when working with configurations of sparse networks.The theoretical framework adapted,with the adaptation of the Dijkstra’s algorithm for dynamically changing network topologies,is novel in this work and quite different from any traditional application.The adaptation should offer more efficient routing and less computational overhead,most apt in the limited resource environment of MANETs.Thus,from these findings,one may derive a conclusion that the proposed version of Dijkstra’s algorithm is the best and most feasible choice of the routing protocol for MANETs given all pertinent key performance and resource consumption indicators and further that the proposed method offers a marked improvement over traditional methods.This paper,therefore,operationalizes the theoretical model into practical scenarios and also further research with empirical simulations to understand more about its operational effectiveness.

Original optimal method to solve the all-pairs shortest path problem: Dhouib-matrix-ALL-SPP

The All-pairs shortest path problem(ALL-SPP)aims to find the shortest path joining all the vertices in a given graph.This study proposed a new optimal method,Dhouib-matrix-ALL-SPP(DM-ALL-SPP)to solve the ALL-SPP based on column-row navigation through the adjacency matrix.DM-ALL-SPP is designed to generate in a single execution the shortest path with details among all-pairs of vertices for a graph with positive and negative weighted edges.Even for graphs with a negative cycle,DM-ALL-SPP reported a negative cycle.In addition,DM-ALL-SPP continues to work for directed,undirected and mixed graphs.Furthermore,it is characterized by two phases:the first phase consists of adding by column repeated(n)iterations(where n is the number of vertices),and the second phase resides in adding by row executed in the worst case(n∗log(n))iterations.The first phase,focused on improving the elements of each column by adding their values to each row and modifying them with the smallest value.The second phase is emphasized by rows only for the elements modified in the first phase.Different instances from the literature were used to test the performance of the proposed DM-ALL-SPP method,which was developed using the Python programming language and the results were compared to those obtained by the Floyd-Warshall algorithm.

Multi-Objective Redundancy Optimization of Continuous-Point Robot Milling Path in Shipbuilding

The 6-DOF manipulator provides a new option for traditional shipbuilding for its advantages of vast working space,low power consumption,and excellent flexibility.However,the rotation of the end effector along the tool axis is functionally redundant when using a robotic arm for five-axis machining.In the process of ship construction,the performance of the parts’protective coating needs to bemachined tomeet the Performance Standard of Protective Coatings(PSPC).The arbitrary redundancy configuration in path planning will result in drastic fluctuations in the robot joint angle,greatly reducing machining quality and efficiency.There have been some studies on singleobjective optimization of redundant variables,However,the quality and efficiency of milling are not affected by a single factor,it is usually influenced by several factors,such as the manipulator stiffness,the joint motion smoothness,and the energy consumption.To solve this problem,this paper proposed a new path optimization method for the industrial robot when it is used for five-axis machining.The path smoothness performance index and the energy consumption index are established based on the joint acceleration and the joint velocity,respectively.The path planning issue is formulated as a constrained multi-objective optimization problem by taking into account the constraints of joint limits and singularity avoidance.Then,the path is split into multiple segments for optimization to avoid the slow convergence rate caused by the high dimension.An algorithm combining the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm(NSGA-II)and the differential evolution(DE)algorithm is employed to solve the above optimization problem.The simulations validate the effectiveness of the algorithm,showing the improvement of smoothness and the reduction of energy consumption.

Research on global path planning based on ant colony optimization for AUV

Path planning is an important issue for autonomous underwater vehicles （AUVs） traversing an unknown environment such as a sea floor, a jungle, or the outer celestial planets. For this paper, global path planning using large-scale chart data was studied, and the principles of ant colony optimization （ACO） were applied. This paper introduced the idea of a visibility graph based on the grid workspace model. It also brought a series of pheromone updating rules for the ACO planning algorithm. The operational steps of the ACO algorithm are proposed as a model for a global path planning method for AUV. To mimic the process of smoothing a planned path, a cutting operator and an insertion-point operator were designed. Simulation results demonstrated that the ACO algorithm is suitable for global path planning. The system has many advantages, including that the operating path of the AUV can be quickly optimized, and it is shorter, safer, and smoother. The prototype system successfully demonstrated the feasibility of the concept, proving it can be applied to surveys of unstructured unmanned environments.

TOOL PATH OPTIMIZATION OF POCKET CORNER

In milling around sharp corners, residual materials are left at sharp corners when the stepover is extremely long in the contour-parallel tool path. Milling force at the sharp corner rises momentarily due to the increase of the cutter contact length, thus shortening the tool life and leading to machine chatter, even cutter breakage. Then a tool path improvement method by inserting biarc transition segments in the contour-parallel tool path is proposed for milling the pocket. Using the method, the cutter moves along the biarc transition tool path. And the corner material is removed. The improved tool path is continuous for clearing residual materials at the sharp corner. Finally, the machining experiment validates the proposed method.

The Internet of Vehicles(IoV)is a networking paradigm related to the intercommunication of vehicles using a network.In a dynamic network,one of the key challenges in IoV is traffic management under increasing vehicles to avoid congestion.Therefore,optimal path selection to route traffic between the origin and destination is vital.This research proposed a realistic strategy to reduce traffic management service response time by enabling real-time content distribution in IoV systems using heterogeneous network access.Firstly,this work proposed a novel use of the Ant Colony Optimization(ACO)algorithm and formulated the path planning optimization problem as an Integer Linear Program(ILP).This integrates the future estimation metric to predict the future arrivals of the vehicles,searching the optimal routes.Considering the mobile nature of IOV,fuzzy logic is used for congestion level estimation along with the ACO to determine the optimal path.The model results indicate that the suggested scheme outperforms the existing state-of-the-art methods by identifying the shortest and most cost-effective path.Thus,this work strongly supports its use in applications having stringent Quality of Service(QoS)requirements for the vehicles.

Path Planning of Continuum Robot Based on a New Improved Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

Continuum robot is a new type of biomimetic robot,which realizes the motion by bending some parts of its body.So its path planning becomes more difficult even compared with hyper-redundant robots.In this paper a circular arc spline interpolating method is proposed for the robot shape description,and a new two-stage position-selectable-updating particle swarm optimization(TPPSO)algorithm is put forward to solve this path planning problem.The algorithm decomposes the standard PSO velocity’s single-step updating formula into twostage multi-point updating,specifically adopting three points as candidates and selecting the best one as the updated position in the first half stage,and similarly taking seven points as candidates and selecting the best one as the final position in the last half stage.This scheme refines and widens each particle’s searching trajectory,increases the updating speed of the individual best,and improves the converging speed and precision.Aiming at the optimization objective to minimize the sum of all the motion displacements of every segmental points and all the axial stretching or contracting displacements of every segment,the TPPSO algorithm is used to solve the path planning problem.The detailed solution procedure is presented.Numerical examples of five path planning cases show that the proposed algorithm is simple,robust,and efficient.

Improved Ant Colony-Genetic Algorithm for Information Transmission Path Optimization in Remanufacturing Service System

The information transmission path optimization(ITPO) can often a ect the e ciency and accuracy of remanufactur?ing service. However, there is a greater degree of uncertainty and complexity in information transmission of remanu?facturing service system, which leads to a critical need for designing planning models to deal with this added uncer?tainty and complexity. In this paper, a three?dimensional(3D) model of remanufacturing service information network for information transmission is developed, which combines the physic coordinate and the transmitted properties of all the devices in the remanufacturing service system. In order to solve the basic ITPO in the 3D model, an improved 3D ant colony algorithm(Improved AC) was put forward. Moreover, to further improve the operation e ciency of the algorithm, an improved ant colony?genetic algorithm(AC?GA) that combines the improved AC and genetic algorithm was developed. In addition, by taking the transmission of remanufacturing service demand information of certain roller as example, the e ectiveness of AC?GA algorithm was analyzed and compared with that of improved AC, and the results demonstrated that AC?GA algorithm was superior to AC algorithm in aspects of information transmission delay, information transmission cost, and rate of information loss.
