Recent development in wireless sensor network (WSN) has shown the importance of routing protocols as they differ in application and networking architecture. The efficiency of WSNs strongly depends on the routing protocol used. In this paper, we have discussed some of the important protocols of network and data-link layer. Various issues such as energy efficiency, lifetime, scalability of network and mobility of nodes have been discussed here. The paper concludes with open research issues. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2011.
