Abstract

Wireless sensor networks consist of a large number of sensor nodes with limited energy, which is widely used in various Internet of things scenarios in recent years. Regarding the vast use of smart objects and applications, one of the big challenges is to collect and analyse the data. Sensor energy limitations and data redundancy are the primary challenges in these networks and reduce network lifetime as well. Therefore, the nodes try to eliminate redundant data, before transferring it to the central station. Data aggregation in IoT such as wireless sensor network plays an important role because in IoT there are heterogeneous data collected from different sources which need more energy to send data. One of the solutions to reduce energy, in this case, is to process and aggregate data prior to sending it. Data aggregation is an effective technique in reducing the data redundancy as well as improving energy efficiency; It also increases the lifespan of Wireless Sensor Networks. Integrating and combining relevant and identical data prevents sending additional packets, and minimizes the redundancy, saves energy, and increases network lifetime. The main purpose of this paper is to provide a new data aggregation method based on the open-pit mining idea efficiently. In this approach, the wireless sensor network is divided into several clusters, and in each cluster, a central node is specified, around which some hypothetical pits are considered to aggregate and send data.
