Cooperative energy aware routing for wireless sensor network
无线传感网协作能量感知路由方法*

This paper introduces multihop diversity to the wireless sensor network for energy efficiency, and proposes a Cooperative Energy Aware Routing (CEAR) scheme. CEAR utilizes the multihop diversity to improve the classical Energy Aware Routing (EAR) scheme in the wireless sensor network. The total energy consumption at each hop in the multihop diversity procedure is analyzed, and the CEAR scheme is designed based on the analysis results of the energy consumption. The simulation results show that the CEAR has the better energy efficiency than the EAR scheme.
