On a Routing Method of WSN – in a Complex Networks View

Abstract

This document presents a routing method and corresponding protocol in wireless sensor networks – in a Complex Networks view. The algorithm could be used to form a WSN with a scale-free-network-like topology which helps shorten the length of the routing path. Together with the information fusion function involved in the scale-free routing protocol, the algorithm could dramatically reduce the redundancies of the datagram transferred in the WSN and thus improve the life cycle of WSN.
