In the near future, wireless sensor networks are expected to find wide applicability and increasing deployment.In this paper, a formal classification of sensor networks based on their mode of functioning: such as proactive and reactive networks is proposed.Reactive networks respond immediately to the changes in the relevant parameters of interest, while proactive networks collect passive data in a periodic way.A new energy efficient routing protocol named TSEESNP (Threshold Sensitive Energy Efficient Sensor Network Protocol) for reactive networks is introduced in this paper.The performance is well evaluated using the TSEESNP routing protocol for a simple temperature sensing application.In terms of energy efficiency, this protocol has been observed to outperform existing conventional sensor network protocols. General TermsWireless sensor network routing protocol for such situation when time is short and need urgently data to be sensed and energy loss need to be optimized.This is a reactive approach which is compared with some proactive approaches.
