Abstract

Nowadays, several researches focus on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) protocols. These small sensors are disseminated in a large geographical area, sense local data, and send them over multi-hop routes to the base station (BS). Furthermore, the BS processes data and sends results to remote centers. The most problem in the WSNs is the energy optimization of the sensor nodes for collect, process, and information broadcast. Each node has limited energy autonomy and most of the existing protocols focus on the optimal management of energy consumption aiming to maximize the network lifetime. We present, here, a geographic routing protocol dedicated to the WSNs. This approach exploits the neighboring node’s positions, which are in the direction of the BS to send the data packets with minimum energy dissipation. In order to forward packets efficiently around voids, new mechanisms are introduced. The shortest path between the sender node and the destination node is calculated by taking in account only the local knowledge of sensor nodes (neighborhood). Simulation results show that this protocol is very efficient and outperforms other geographical protocols in terms of energy management.
