Routing Protocol Based on Energy Consumption and Network Lifetime in WSN: A Review

Abstract

The WSN consists of diverse number of sensor nodes for communication sensing and computation. Due to their small nature they have limited energy source since they are battery operated, recharging and replacing these batteries is very difficult and have several energy efficiency problems for which there are equivalent solution that can optimize the cost of routing and metric calculation, approaches to Load Balancing, Data Forwarding. The life of battery can be extended by designing an efficient routing protocol and algorithm which will overcome the drawbacks in WSN efficiently. Here we are doing a comparative study on the different routing techniques and algorithm to access the productivity of the technique, which helped researchers device various solution to the drawbacks in routing packets to their destination.
