COMPARISON OF ROUTING PROTOCOLS USED IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

Wireless Sensor Networks are used in number of applications due to technological advancements. As WSNs are made up of tiny sensor nodes and moreover these nodes are battery operated devices, so it became very easy to deploy networks based on wireless sensors. As requirement for establishment and effectual working of every type of network are different, same is the case with WSNs. The set of rules which helps in communication of any type of network is known as Protocol, the selection of protocol is an important issue. As WSNs are new and very advanced in features, it became necessary to choose efficient protocol for establishing network based on wireless sensors. In this paper, we are going to analyze protocols used in WSNs & analysis is performed on the basis of comparison of different parameters.
