Quality assurance of energy aware routing algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless Sensor Networks are evolving rapidly and are becoming part of our every day life. Vast usage of these networks has resulted in development of many routing protocols for WSN. Sensor nodes have limited battery power, for which many protocols have been designed to use the available energy of the nodes in efficient manner. An energy aware routing algorithm has been developed . It works on location based routing strategy. The algorithm works on the values of average energy and minimum distance for efficient usage of energy and link reversing to cater for the problem of routing holes. In this research paper testing of routing algorithm has been performed. Black Box testing has been applied and found that the algorithm performs efficiently both in case of data delivery and energy consumption.
