Energy efficient multipath routing for wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Energy efficiency and adaptation to non-critical failure are the two major issues that must be considered for the organization of any Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Multi-path routing is an effective result to overcome the internal failure of WSNs. In this paper, we propose a method for evaluating the energy of each node involved in WSNs multi-path routing. In the proposed method, directing timetable is set up at the Base Station (BS) which shares it with every one of the hubs in the whole system. The proposed method has an effective result which is determined with different parameters, for instance, separation amongst sender and receiver hubs, separation between next hop hub to the BS and furthermore on the quantity of jumps to send information from next hop hub to the BS. The proposed method is implemented using NS2 simulator and assessed through different execution measurements.
