Abstract:
Wireless sensor network has brought a new era in wireless networking platform. Its intense usage in different application areas has led the researcher to design a new network architecture paradigm. Due to its uniqueness, traditional wireless ad hoc network does not suit well in this scenario. Many new protocols, networking architectures etc. are being proposed. Wireless sensor network architectures differ from application to application. Different application demands different mechanism. Recent advances in wireless sensor networks have led to many new protocols specifically designed for sensor networks where energy awareness is an essential consideration. But for healthcare application only energy awareness cannot achieve the eventual goal of the sensor network. For that purpose, the reliability of links plays a vital role. Many protocols like RPL, CTP etc. are proposed in this context. In this paper, we have proposed an application specific routing protocol for the healthcare application. Our proposed routing protocol is devoted to improve the throughput of data packet transmission in healthcare application maintaining a sound network life time.
