Optimal routing protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

In view to support decisions for the best routing protocol for specific applications of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), a comparative analysis is provided in relevant simulated scalable scenarios. Simulated and tested routing protocols in WSN are pro-active DSDV and reactive AODV, DSR and AOMDV protocols. Parameters as throughput, end to end delay, network's life, time of finding the routes, number of packets received, percentage of receiving and normalized routing load are measured and monitored and a set of design decision are recommended.
