Power-Aware Consumption Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless sensor networks consist of spatially distributed sensor to monitor physical or environmental conditions and cooperatively pass their data to a central location. These kinds of network have come into prominence because they hold the potential to revolutionize many segments of our life from environmental monitoring and conservation to automation in traffic monitoring and health-care business. This paper focus on design, implementation and operation of a sensor network requires the assemblage of various disciplines including embedded systems, hardware, networking, information management and distributed algorithms. Most applications of WSNs require deployment in unattended remote locations. Therefore, power awareness is fundamental to data dissemination and routing in a WSN.
