BIDIRECTIONAL DATA CENTRIC ROUTING PROTOCOL TO IMPROVE THE ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

Abstract

A wireless sensor network (WSN) is made up of spatially distributed autonomous sensors to monitor physical or environmental conditions and cooperatively pass their data through the network to a main location. Wireless sensor network are data data centric protocol, and the graph results prove that bidirectional data centric protocol has higher percentage in disseminating data at a fixed centric. The challenge remains in designing a good routing protocol which can address the issues such as energy awareness, adaptability, and computational speed and network lifetime. But in wsn the main area of concentration is in routing data in an efficient manner such that minimal energy resources’ are used. But in a network, consumption of energy is mainly due to the routing of data. Protocols like classical flooding, gossiping, spin (sensor protocol for information via negotiation) and dd (directed diffusion can reduce the consumption drastically. But these can undergo a drawback of data redundancy, resource blindness and packet loss. To overcome this disadvantage , we present a novel protocol called bidirectional data centric protocol which has a meta data descriptor and the data is send in the shortest path based on source and sink interest. On performing simulation of bidirectional energy level.
