Scalable and Cost Effective Solution to Minimum Cost Forwarding in WSN

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 6

Abstract

Abstract: This paper introduces an improved routing protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN), built on the basis of fundamental concepts in source based minimum cost forwarding protocol. Neither routing tables nor network topology information is maintained at the sensor level, which makes the proposed protocol part of the reactive routing protocol class. Despite the lack of routing information at the sensor, the packets from the sink node to sensors, and vice versa, always accompany the optimal communication path with minimal cost. Simulation results have proven that the proposed protocol performs better than existing protocol, and nodesalways route the packets through the optimal path up to destination. In fact, according to the energy consumption, packet delivery ratio, end to end delay and throughput found by simulation, this protocol improves on the existing protocol for applications where the sink node, acting as a server or base station (BS), generates significant amounts of mesh traffic. All results are based on simulations and data treatment performed with Network Simulator (NS2).
