Abstract

The interconnection of nodes forming a network called wireless sensor network (WSN). The difference between the WSN and traditional wireless networks is that sensors are extremely sensitive to energy consumption. Energy saving is the crucial issue in designing the wireless sensor networks. The application domain of WSNs varies from environmental monitoring, to health care applications, military operation, transportation, security applications, weather forecasting, real time tracking, and fire detection and so on. By considering its application areas WSN can be argued as a traditional wired or wireless network. But in reality, these networks are comprised of battery operated tiny nodes with limitations in their computation capabilities, memory, bandwidth, and hardware resulting in resource constrained WSN. In this paper we work on a Heterogenious Routing technique to achieve energy efficiency.
