| Summary: | Recent advances in the field of wireless sensor network
technology and sensor instrumentation have led to the
evolvement of new protocols, which are specially designed for
wireless sensor networks where energy conservation is of
paramount importance. Researchers in the field of wireless
sensor networks are currently concentrating on the challenge of
designing an optimum routing protocol, since they might differ
depending on the application and network architecture used in
their design. Hierarchical routing protocols for large-scale
wireless sensor networks are more advantageous compared to
other types of routing techniques. This paper is an evaluation of
selected hierarchical routing protocols with special emphasis on
their radio propagation techniques efficiency for hierarchical
Sensor Networks. |
