In the present industrial atmosphere, collecting reports from different units of the industries, sensor nodes are used. Continuous data monitoring, processing and transmitting affects the lifetime of nodes quickly. To overcome from this issue, a mobile relay node is developed and introduced in the industrial atmosphere. This mobile relay node tracks the location of sensor nodes placed at different locations and collects the data. This device reduces the power utilized for communication by a sensor node and extends its lifetime. It improves packet delivery by preventing loss of data and reduces the workload of sensor nodes. In this work, the mobile relay node is developed for the industrial application using LPC2148 processor, RFID reader, Infra Red sensor and XBee modules. The collected data are transmitted to the server room through the mobile relay node to monitor and control industrial devices. The algorithm for the mobile relay node and sensor node is developed and successfully implemented in simulation and also in real time environment. In this work, the number of routers and different configuration of routing devices are reduced. In result, the lifetime of a mobile device, nodes and packet delivery ratio are improved |
