Study of Link-aware Routing Algorithm Based on Minimum Energy Route for Wireless Ad-Hoc Sensor Networks

Abstract

Routing protocols for wireless ad hoe networks have traditionally focused on finding paths with minimum hop count. Considered diverse wireless radio environment,Such paths are not able to find a reliable route,result in more energy consumption and less throughput.To solve the problem in the wireless ad hoc sensor networks,we propose the concept of reliable link zone.The mechanism was based on the reactive routing protocol using link state aware model which takes into account the transmission minimum energy.The simulation results show that our proposed routing algorithm has better performance than the existing minimum hop routing protocol in terms of delay and packet reception rate.
