Neutrosophic Sets and Systems
Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach known as Neutrosophic Fuzzy Power Management (NFPM) aimed at addressing the critical challenge of uncertain energy availability in Energy Harvesting Sensor Networks (EHWSNs). The main objective of this research is to enhance the management of energy resources within these networks, which traditional fuzzy logic methods often fail to do, leading to power failures and reduced reliability. NFPM utilizes neutrosophic logic to effectively model uncertainty by representing the degrees of truth, indeterminacy, and falsity of both harvested and residual energy levels. Through a fuzzy inference system, NFPM dynamically allocates energy budgets for each time slot based on these neutrosophic sets, resulting in more adaptive and conservative energy distribution. The results are validated through numerical examples and extensive simulations, demonstrating NFPM's superiority over traditional fuzzy logic, with significant improvements such as a 25% reduction in power failures, 95% enhanced network connectivity, a 15% increase in data transmission success rates, and overall improvements in energy efficiency and robustness to fluctuations and noise. This research establishes NFPM as a promising solution to the uncertainties inherent in EHWSNs. Future research directions include exploring the integration of NFPM with machine learning algorithms for predictive energy management, assessing its scalability in larger networks, and examining its applicability in other domains requiring energy management under uncertainty.
