REEDA: Routing with energy efficiency data aggregation in wireless sensor network

The area of wireless sensor network (WSN) is shrouded with the issues of routing protocol that has been witnessed in the last few decade in the research community. One of the direct influences of routing protocol is the performance of data aggregation in WSN. This paper presents a novel routing protocol that performs a cost effective, reliable and robust routing mechanism in wireless sensor network with its highly compatibility with in-network data aggregation mechanism. A simulation study is performed Matlab, where along with proposed routing algorithm, two more conventional algorithm is chosen to perform the performance comparative analysis. The performance parameters selected for simulation study shows that the proposed routing protocol is robust against the conventional routing protocol with respect to efficiency and data delivery phenomenon.
