Design Issues, Characteristics and Challenges in Routing Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (original) (raw)

2013, Ijca Proceedings on International Conference and Workshop on Emerging Trends in Technology 2013

The modern research has found a variety of applications and systems with vastly varying requirements and characteristics in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The research has led to materialization of many application specific routing protocols which must be energy-efficient. As a consequence, it is becoming increasingly difficult to discuss the design issues requirements regarding hardware and software support. Implementation of efficient system in a multidisciplinary research such as WSNs is becoming very difficult. In this paper we discuss the design issues in routing protocols for WSNs by considering its various dimensions and metrics such as QoS requirement, path redundancy etc. The paper concludes by presenting the suitable applications and QoS of routing protocols for WSNs.
