A wireless sensor network is an enormous assortment of sensor nodes with inadequate power supply and self-conscious computational competence. Due to the circumscribed communication range and high density of sensor nodes, packet dispatching in sensor networks is usually performed through multi-hop data transmission. For that reason, routing in wireless sensor networks has been deliberated as an imperative field of research over the past decade. These days, multipath routing techniques is widely used in wireless sensor networks to improve network performance over and done with efficient utilization of accessible network resources. Consequently, the main intention of this review is to present the conception of the various routing approaches and its fundamental experiments, as well as the basic motivations for exploiting these techniques in wireless sensor networks. Routing procedures for WSNs are responsible for selecting and maintaining the routes in the network and ensure reliable and effective communication in inadequate periods. The energy constriction of WSNs make energy saving become the most significant objective of various routing algorithms. In this paper, a review of routing protocols and algorithms used in WSNs is presented with energy efficiency as the main goalmouth.

“…WSNs which considers Quality of Services (QoS) with energy efficiency [11]. For routing, SAR considers three factors: energy resources, QoS on the paths, and the priority levels of the packets [14]. The SAR protocol creates different paths to bypass route re-calculation overhead in case of route failure.…”

Abstract-The field of communications networks continues to emerge, thus leading to the rapid growth in the field of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). WSNs are noticeably different from traditional Ad hoc networks. The conspicuous difference between WSNs and traditional Ad hoc networks is that they (WSNs) are strictly constrained by limited supply of energy, capacity of storage, power of computation, and bandwidth. Because of these constraints and random deployment in some cases, it has become a challenge for the researchers to design an unblemished routing layer protocol for wireless sensor networks. In this paper we studied the motivation and design issues for routing protocols in WSNs with the limitations of existing routing protocols for WSNs. We also used GloMoSim-2.03 to find the shortcomings of traditional ad hoc routing protocols (DSR, WRF, AODV) when those are applied to WSN and to find out certain specific scenarios (considering low traffic networks and high traffic networks) of WSN where it is better to employ an existing Ad hoc routing protocol rather than developing a new one.

“…Thisis achieved by initiating a communication-link s chedule among t he nodes and maintainingthis schedule periodically in the long-term. Protocols belonging to this class have been proposed in [11], e.g., SMACS and EAR. Because of the static nature of the sensor nodes, the self-organization process is mostly a one-time initialization effort, except in case nodes fail.…”

Abstract. Ultra Wide Band (UWB)impulse radio is a promising technology for future short-range, low-power, low cost and high data ratead hoc networks.The technology isbeing explored in a number of research projects. While most UWB research for this class of networksisconcentrating on the physicall ayer, little researchh as been published on link layer protocols which exploit the specifics of UWB impulse r adio. In t his paper, w e focus on t he selforganization concept and the peculiarities of UWB technology from aphysical and a link layer point of view. Anovel self-organizing link layerprotocol based on time hopping spread spectrum is proposed in thispaper.This protocol promisest obean efficient and collision-free mechanism t hat enables the devices tod iscover neighbornodes and arrange the access to communication resources shared among the nodes. The adjustable parameters of the protocol enable the network to adapt to a dynamic environment. 1IntroductionArange of services supporting future mobile applications are expected to require high data rates, high communicationquality and efficient network access. A case in point is mobile interactive gaming, where fast transmission of image and voice in dynamic environments is a prerequisite.Wireless networks that meet these expectations will have a hybrid character, consisting mainly of ad hoc networks with occasional access to infrastructures, in order to reachremote nodes or infrastructure-based servers. They will have tooperate completely automatically without t he interventiono f s ystem administrators, and therefore will haveto be self-organizing. Self-organization in this context implies the automatic finding of neighbor nodes, the creation of connections, the scheduling of transmissions and the determining of routes. This should be performed in a distributed manner sothat all nodes in t he network are able t o exchange information and reconfigure the network when nodes join or leave, or when radio linksare broken or established.A promising but, because of implementation difficulties, notw ell explored radio technology is UWB impulse radio. This technology has a lot of potentialf or high-* This researchi spart of the AIRLINK project funded by the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs under the Freeband Impulse Program.
