Abstract

A wireless sensor network with a large number of small sensor nodes can be used as an effective tool for gathering data in various situations. Energy is a critical resource in wireless sensor networks and system lifetime needs to be prolonged through the use of energy-aware strategies during system operation. Routing protocols in WSNs might differ depending on the application and network architecture. Many routing protocols have been specifically designed for WSNs where energy awareness is an essential design issue. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the efficiency of a routing protocol named directed flooding which is a fault-tolerant and energy efficient routing protocol for wireless sensor networks. This protocol is based on the flooding routing protocol, in which energy consumption is decreased and levels of fault-tolerance is increased. This is done by sending data in a specific aperture instead of broadcasting, which is used in the traditional flooding algorithm. A simulator is developed for evaluation of this protocol. The results of simulation are presented and analyzed

无线传感器网络路由协议的性能评估

具有大量小传感器节点的无线传感器网络可以作为在各种情况下收集数据的有效工具。在无线传感器网络中，能量是一种至关重要的资源，在系统运行过程中，需要通过使用能量感知策略来延长系统寿命。wsn中的路由协议可能会根据应用程序和网络体系结构而有所不同。许多路由协议都是专门为无线传感器网络设计的，其中能量感知是一个基本的设计问题。本文的目的是评估定向泛洪路由协议的效率，定向泛洪路由协议是一种容错和节能的无线传感器网络路由协议。该协议在泛洪路由协议的基础上，降低了能耗，提高了容错水平。这是通过在特定的孔径内发送数据来完成的，而不是在传统的泛洪算法中使用广播。为了对该协议进行评估，开发了一个模拟器。给出了仿真结果并进行了分析
