Sensor Routing Protocol With Optimized Delay And Overheads In Mobile Based Wsn

Recent years have witnessed the emergence of mobile wireless sensor networks as an interesting field of research in contrast to their more advanced static counterpart. Although mobility in MWSNs relaxes issues concerning connectivity and coverage, many more challenges still need to be addressed. Routing and localization among these, remain at focal point. In this paper, a robust and relatively new protocol which exploits the sensor's mobility to deal with routing problems in mobile sensor networks is discussed. The protocol's algorithm is based on utilizing the location information of sensor nodes which improves the performance when compared to mobile ad-hoc network protocols like ad-hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV). The use of blind forwarding technique creates packet redundancy, thus increasing the reliability of the protocol. This improves energy utilization and reduces hardware cost. Routing overhead, end-to-end delay are used for protocol evaluation. The simulation results show better potential of LASeR in mobile environments than other conventional protocols.
