MA-SWR: A Design of Routing Algorithm for Mobile Agent in WSN

This paper presents a design of routing algorithm for mobile agent in the wireless sensor networks which is called MA-SWR. It introduces a weight metric and each node derives its weight value dynamically from its current position. In MA-SWR, by comparing the weights values, mobile agents can determine their own routs. MA-SWR can be applied when topological information changes such as in a network with mobile sinks. This protocol can reduce energy consumptions and delays. Meanwhile, it provides multi-routs, naturally which is essential to improve reliability. Finally, a simulation evaluation is made for the routing algorithm.
