Connected Dominating Set based Optimized Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs) have problem of energy starvation in their operations. This constraint demands that the topology of communicating nodes should be limited. One of the ways of restraining the communicating nodes is by creating a Connected Dominating Set(CDS) of nodes out of them. In this paper, an Optimized Region Based Efficient Data(AORED) routing protocol for WSNs has been proposed. CDS has been employed in AORED to create a virtual backbone of communicating nodes in the network. The empirical study involving extensive simulations show that the proposed routing protocol outperforms the legacy DEEC and SEP protocols. AORED has increased number of transmission rounds, increased number of clusterheads and reduced number of packets sent to the basestation as compared to DEEC and SEP protocols.
