The demand for a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has increased enormously because of its great ability to supervise the outside world as well as due to its vast range of applications. Since these sensor nodes depend greatly on battery power and being deployed in adverse environments, substituting the battery is a tiresome job. Cluster-based routing techniques are prominent methods to extend the lifetime of wireless sensor networks. In this research, the work on energy efficient clustering approach is considered in two phases. During the cluster head selection phase, cluster heads are chosen which can stabilize the power consumption in sensor networks, by considering both the residual energy and distance of node with respect to sink. Later, during the cluster formation phase, a non-cluster head node will choose a cluster head that lies in close proximity with the center point between the sensor nodes and sink. Also, these non-cluster head nodes should be within the transmission range of the cluster head, as selected by the above method. Initially, the Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) which is an eminent protocol for sensor networks is investigated. Furthermore, the same LEACH protocol is enhanced by proposing an effective cluster head election scheme as well as a new cluster formation scheme as mentioned above. Simulation results reveal that the proposed algorithm outperforms the traditional LEACH protocol in prolonging network lifetime.

Integrasi lightweight blockchain dengan Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) telah menyelesaikan beberapa masalah seperti authentikasi, authorisasi, keamanan dan integritas data. Namun, belum ada studi yang berfokus memperhatikan network lifetime pada blockchain yang diterapkan pada WSN. Penelitian ini berupaya memodifikasi algoritma Proof-of-Authority (PoA) agar lebih adil dalam pembagian penggunaan energi yang ditujukan untuk meningkatkan network lifetime sekaligus produksi blok. Jenis jaringan yang digunakan adalah WSN terklaster karena memiliki penggunaan energi yang lebih baik. WSN terklaster terdiri dari Base Station, Cluster Head dan Sensor Node yang memiliki tugasnya masing-masing. Dalam hal network lifetime, studi ini mengembangkan Proof-of-Authority menjadi Energy-aware Proof-of-Authority (EA-PoA) yang memodifikasi pertukaran pesan dan pemilihan Leader. EA-PoA memodifikasi pemilihan pengusul blok (Leader) yang awalnya menggunakan round-robin menjadi pemilihan berdasarkan pembobotan battery level pada setiap perangkat. Dengan demikian, node yang memiliki baterai lebih sedikit tidak akan terbebani oleh proses mining. Sedangkan dalam hal produksi blok, penelitian ini telah mengembangkan model jaringan blockchain hirarki yang terdiri dari local dan master blockchain yang disebut Multi-level blockchain model (MLBM). Local blockchain adalah jaringan blockchain untuk setiap klaster dengan anggota Node Sensor. Blok yang diusulkan dan disimpan dalam jaringan local blockchain merupakan data sensor. Sedangkan master blockchain beranggotakan Cluster Head dari setiap klaster, blok yang diusulkan dan disimpan adalah kumpulan header dari beberapa blok dalam local blockchain. Hal ini dilakukan untuk meningkatkan integritas data sekaligus mengingkatkan produksi blok dalam jaringan. Hasil simulasi menunjukkan bahwa mekanisme pemilihan Leader dari EA-PoA dapat meningkatkan network lifetime hingga 10% dibandingkan PoA tradisional. Selanjutnya, Multi-level blockchain model dapat meningkatkan produksi blok setiap penambahan klaster dalam jaringan. ......The integration of lightweight blockchain with Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has addressed several issues such as authentication, authorization, security, and data integrity. However, no study has specifically focused on the network lifetime of blockchain implemented in WSN. This research aims to modify the Proof-of-Authority (PoA) algorithm to more equitably distribute energy usage to enhance both network lifetime and block production. The type of network employed is clustered WSN, known for its better energy usage. Clustered WSN consists of a Base Station, Cluster Head, and Sensor Nodes, each with distinct responsibilities. In terms of network lifetime, this study develops Proof-of-Authority into Energy-aware Proof-of-Authority (EA-PoA), which modifies message exchange and Leader selection. EA-PoA alters the block proposer (Leader) selection from a round-robin method to a battery-level weighting method for each device. Thus, nodes with lower battery levels are not burdened by the mining process. Regarding block production, this research has developed a hierarchical blockchain network model called the Multi-level Blockchain Model (MLBM), which consists of local and master blockchains. The local blockchain serves as the blockchain network for each cluster with Sensor Node members, where proposed and stored blocks contain sensor data. The master blockchain consists of Cluster Heads from each cluster, where proposed and stored blocks are collections of headers from several blocks in the local blockchain. This approach is designed to enhance data integrity and increase block production within the network. Simulation results indicate that the Leader selection mechanism of EA-PoA can extend network lifetime by up to 10% compared to traditional PoA. Furthermore, the Multi-level Blockchain Model can increase block production with each additional cluster in the network.
