概要 This paper proposes a drive-control type of sink node allocation method to distribute the load on sensor nodes. By using an improved sequential activation method and the artificial bee colony algorithm, which is a type of swarm intelligence algorithm, we assign sensor nodes that should be driven on the network and perform appropriate control of their communications radii. The results of evaluation experiments done by computer simulation have confirmed that the proposed method provides sink node allocation candidates within a large-scale sensor network environment that can implement greater power saving performances and extended operating times in comparison with conventional methods.
