PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF A WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK WITH DIFFERENT ROUTING PROTOCOLS
Abstract
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has been considerably applied and deployed in many areas, e.g. commonly used in order to monitor environmental conditions, in hospitals, army, and emergency. However, there are many issues and challenges in WSN, e.g. the limited energy resource is one of the most challenging. One of such challenge is the energy consumed in WSN which is very limited and non-chargeable. Therefore, many researchers have investigated in improvements of reducing the amount of energy required to provide routers in WSN. Our paper focuses on the study and evaluates the performance of some common routing protocols in WSN by providing a comparison among them through experiments in term of saving energy consumption in each node for each protocol. We believe that the paper can be considered as a good reference for using routing protocols in WSN
