Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The usage and deployment of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is rapidly increasing in many different monitoring and control applications. In the majority of these applications, energy is a key factor in sensor networks since the sensor nodes are battery powered and hence have limited resources of energy. In this context, choosing a proper energy-efficient routing technique can increase the network life time. In this paper, a new Hybrid Energy-Efficient (HEE) routing protocol is proposed. HEE uses Direct Transmission (DT) and Minimum Energy Transmission (MTE) which are two of the simplest methods in terms of computational complexity. However the design of routing techniques is highly dependent on the application and the performance may vary based on environmental parameters. The novel proposed method is applicable for different networks regardless of the size and distances between the nodes and also with different parameters such as number of nodes and message length. Simulation results show how HEE performs more efficiently in terms of energy consumption when comparing to DT and MTE.
