Energy-Aware and Relay Relocation Routing Protocol for Sink Based Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) refers to networks of spatially dispersed sensors which can communicate to a central location by forwarding data collected through monitoring of physical conditions. The process of finding a suitable path to destination from source is called routing. IOT devices utilize the service of WSN. Power consumption is the main aspect to be noticed because sensor node battery replacement is impossible. An algorithm, which is cluster based with choosing of cluster head can stable the connections. In this paper, it represents an energy aware clustering using energy-aware routing and relay relocation protocol. This protocol uses relay nodes to relieve the excessive power consumption of the cluster heads. The data transmission range is adjusted by initializing the maximum energy lifetime of the overall network. Thus, it improves the overall network performance in terms of increase in throughput, packet delivery ratio and decrease in delay value. Also, comparison with the existing Delay-aware Green Routing Protocol (DGRP) with our proposed protocol in the matter of throughput, average residual energy, number of packets sent to the base station using Matlab/Simulink.
