Analysis of Energy Aware Sleep Scheduling Routing protocol(EASSR) in wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) refers to a collection of many sensor nodes which are of low cost. WSNs are deployed in many applications like inhospitable terrain, health applications, military etc. Nowadays WSN related protocols and algorithms are designed to achieve higher life time and energy efficiency in the deployed networks. In this regard, clustering is the appropriate technique to with stand the load among the clusters. Various energy efficient cluster based algorithms are studied and Energy Aware Sleep Scheduling Routing (EASSR) being one of the best approaches is implemented because of its advantages over their counterpart and simulated in MATLAB.
