Energy Efficient Fast Forwarding in Event Driven Wireless Sensor Network (EWSN) using Route Discovery
Anita Mahajan, Vidya Dhamdhere · 2013
In wireless Sensor Network Efficient event detecting protocol (EEDP) is used for event monitoring. In the event occuring area each node broadcasts its primary detection result to make a final decision. The final decision-made by a node will choose the next hop using the underlying routing protocol to forward a single alarm packet and the shortest path is also considered. For selecting a shortest path and broadcasting greedy algorithm is used. Further the decision packet is routed such that the node which has maximum battery power and which is closest to sink will be selected as the next hope. This minimizes the rate of failure of link due to node failure thus improved the life time of the network and efficient use of energy is achieved. The Multi copy scheme is used to improve the reliable transmission of the single alarm packet.
