A Sensor Network Routing Protocol Based on Node Residual Energy

Abstract:

This paper mainly discusses the problem of wireless sensor network routing protocols. The flooding routing protocol has disadvantages of hidden terminal, information implosion and emerging redundant packet copies which consume more node energy. A sensor network routing protocol based on node residual energy (RPBEN) is proposed and evaluated. The new protocol choices a small number of nodes that have maximum remaining energy as next hop routing nodes. It saves the energy by avoiding redundancy packet copies produced and improve the disadvantages of flooding routing protocol. Performance analysis and simulation experiment show that the new protocol effectively reduces the data redundancy, reduces the energy consumption and prolongs the network lifetime.
