Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey

Abstract: Abstract-This paper presents a survey on the MAC and network layer of Wireless Sensor Networks. Performance requirements of the MAC layer are explored. MAC layer protocols for battery-powered networks and energy harvestingbased networks are discussed and compared. A detailed discussion on design constraints and classification of routing protocols is presented. Several routing protocols are compared in terms of such parameters as: energy consumption, scalability, network lifetime and mobility. Problems that req… Show more

“…LEACH's main disadvantage is that the sensor node with considerably low energy is probable to be selected as the cluster head, and the cluster heads send the data directly to the base station in a single-hop communication. Hence, this method increases the energy consumption of the cluster head [12] [13]. The Stable Election Protocol (SEP) [14] [5] and Distributed Energy-Efficient Clustering (DEEC) [15][5] algorithms have been specifically designed for heterogeneous networks.…”

“…On the other hand, many of these OSs provide stacks of protocols responsible for managing the wireless communications of the devices. Since the appearance of the first WSNs, researchers have focused on the study of network stacks, which has led to the development of a large number of wireless protocols [12] and even some standards (IEEE 802.15.4, 6LoWPAN, ISA-100.11a). As a result, there are a variety of protocols for the MAC [13,14,15], routing [16,17], and transport [18] layers developed to overcome the different issues present in WSN communications, such as energy-efficiency, latency, scalability, throughput or quality of service (QoS).…”

“…Since the data collected during environmental monitoring is collected for various purposes, quality assurance of emergency is an important consideration [1]- [3]. Also, the energy efficiency of a batteryoperated sensor affects the life of the entire network, so it must be considered [4] [3] [5]. Figure 1.…”
