Abstract
Wireless sensor networks consist of set of specially designed electronic devices called nodes. Each sensor node has an ability of collecting information from the environment it is used for. It will collect environmental conditions such as temperature, sound, pressure, vibration, motion from different locations. The performance of the wireless sensor network may vary due to certain situations like the breaking of the data routing path, data loss during transmission, reducing the battery power of nodes during data transmission. The sensor node will consume more battery power at the time of data transmission as well as reception. Hence the battery power will decrease to a limit, means the node becomes fault or unusable. It should be replaced. Here we are proposing a new method for finding the least number of fault nodes for replacement.
