The Link Quality Indicator (LQI) and Residual Energy have a fundamental impact on the network performance in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and affects as well in the life time of nodes.This paper will provide a comparative of Link Quality Estimator, the Link Quality Estimator with Link Quality Indicator and Link Quality Estimator with Residual Energy.In this paper we develop a Collect Tree Protocol (CTP) and compare the performance of LQI and Residual Energy, and show their effect on the packet delivery ratio and throughput, covering the characteristics of low-power links, and their performance to the best of our knowledge, we believe that our efforts would have implementations on embedded application.
