In wireless sensor networks (WSN), the sensor nodes have a limited transmission range and storage capabilities as well as their energy resources are also limited. Routing protocols for WSN are responsible for maintaining the routes in the network and have to ensure reliable multi-hop communication under these conditions. This paper defines the essential components of the network layer benchmark, which are: the target, the measures and the execution profile. This work investigates the behavior of the Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol in situations of link failure. The test bed implementation and the dependability measures are carried out through the NS-3 simulator. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
