Research on Routing Protocols for Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract:

This paper introduces the architecture of wireless sensor networks, compares several typical routing protocols of wireless sensor network, and focuses on the research of directed diffusion(DD) protocol and geograohic and energy aware routing(GEAR) protocol. GEAR selects the next hop nodes based on the neighbor node location information, limiting the information diffused in the network in the appropriate location of region, which can effectively reduce the maintaining routing information needed for overhead, and form the energy efficient data transmission path, to achieve the purpose of extending the life cycle of the network. Related research work provides the reference for the future network construction.
