Research of routing protocols simulation for wireless sensor networks based on OMNeT++

This paper introduced the Flooding protocol, the Directed Diffusion protocol and the Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy protocol, simulated the protocols under the OMNeT++ simulating platform, analyzed the advantages and shortcomings of the above three routing protocols, compared the routing protocols from the energy consumption, the time delay, pockets dropping rate. It proposed some suggestions for routing protocols improvements which provide foundation for the routing protocols designing and application.
