Abstract

Wireless sensor networks have various applications in both military areas and resident. It recently received great attention from both industry and academic world. In particular, sensor nodes in the sensor network are usually battery-powered and very energy-constrained. So the main challenge of this sensor network is energy efficiency. Sensor networks are deployed in cruel physical environments where it is very difficult to replace the individual nodes or their batteries. Therefore, the maintenance of the consumed energy plays an important role in the design of a new routing protocol in order to increase the durability of the network. Thus energy-saving power aware routing protocol in wireless sensor networks is necessary for growing the network lifetime. In this paper, analysis of different power aware routing algorithms has been added.
