ENFAT-AODV: the fault-tolerant routing protocol for high failure rate Wireless Sensor Networks

As more and more real Wireless Sensor Network's (WSN) applications have been tested and deployed over the last decade, the research community of WSN realizes that several issues need to be revisited from practical angles, such as reliability and availability. Furthermore, fault-tolerance is one...

We design and implement a backup route scheme by creating a backup path for every node in the network. When a node gets failure to deliver the data packet through the main route, it immediately employs the backup route to become a new main path for the next data packet delivery to reduce a number of data packets dropped and to maintain the continuity of data packet transmission in presence of some faults (node or link failures). Furthermore, with high failure rate, this proposed routing protocol improves the throughput and the average End-to-End delay and decrease the control packet load in the network. Consequently, the reliability, availability and maintainability of the network are achieved. The simulation shows that proposed routing scheme is better than the AODV routing. 2010-05 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed application/pdf en http://irep.iium.edu.my/3592/1/2010_2nd_International_Conference_on_Future_Computer_and_Communication.pdf Che-Aron, Zamree and Mohammed Al-Khateeb, Wajdi Fawzi and Anwar, Farhat (2010) ENFAT-AODV: the fault-tolerant routing protocol for high failure rate Wireless Sensor Networks.
