Abstract

In wireless sensor networks, the energy of nodes is limited. So designing efficient routing for reducing energy consumption is important. This paper proposed Grid Based Multipath Energy Aware Routing Protocol (GMEAR) for Wireless Sensor Networks. In this paper, the proposed work can conserve energy and provide the best path to route the data according to the probability of more energy available to the sensor node within some defined range and the network area partitioned into grid-by-grid manner with the same size and sensor node are densely deployed in the region. Simulation results by MATLAB show the energy efficient network and prolong the network lifetime as compared to SMEAR.

Keywords

Data gathering, Energy-balanced routing, Energy efficient, Grid network, Wireless sensor network.
