Research on routing protocol of chainlike wireless sensor network

The data sources concerned by chainlike wireless sensor networks (WSN) are usually distributed, and the distance between nodes is far. The high transmitting power leads to high power consumption, which affects the duration when the system is operated by battery. In this paper, a routing protocol for chainlike wireless sensor network is realized by reducing unnecessary data exchange, which can improve the throughput and reduce the energy consumption. Test results show that the throughput of the protocol can reach 102.91kbps, which can meet the requirements of environment or traffic monitoring.
