ABSTRACT
Large-scale wireless sensors are expected to play an increasingly important role in future civilian and military settings where collaborative microsensors could be very effective in monitoring their operations. However, low power and in-network data processing make data-centric routing in wireless sensor networks a challenging problem.In this paper, we propose a novel and efficient energy-aware distributed heuristic, which we refer to as EAD, to build a special rooted broadcast tree with many leaves that is used to facilitate data-centric routing in wireless microsensor networks. Our EAD algorithm makes no assumption on local network topology, and is based on residual power. It makes use of a neighboring broadcast scheduling and distributed competition among neighboring nodess. We discuss the implementation of our scheme, and present an extensive simulation experiments to study the its performance. Our experimental results indicate clearly that our EAD scheme outperforms previous schemes.
