Efficient coverage greedy packet stateless routing in wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Wireless sensor network is a collection of sensor nodes designed with different routing capabilities to operate on real-world applications. In extreme environments, real-time applications of wireless sensor network ensure exchange of data, a difficult one between the sensor nodes, when less resources are consumed. Therefore, researchers are developing a routing protocol including optimal routing procedures to increase the longevity of the networks. In this paper, an improved route extension architecture is developed in wireless sensor network environment. This Improved Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing is proposed to offer an improved transmission coverage and reduced power consumption capability. It deploys a periodic broadcast of hello message (or control messages) including the positional information between the sensor nodes. The experimental result concludes that the Improved Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing method achieves improved routing capabilities than the traditional hybrid protocols like LEACH and Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing.
