A Comprehensive Study on Energy Efficient Routing Protocol Techniques with Data Aggregation for WSN’s

Abstract: Now a day’s wireless sensor networks (WSNs) attract the researchers more due to their popular applications in environment monitoring, radiation and nuclear-threat detection structure; weapon sensors for ships; battlefield reconnaissance and surveillance; military power, control, intelligence, communications and targeting systems and biomedical aspects. Wireless sensor networks can provide low cost solution to various real-world problems. Sensors are low cost devices with limited storage, computational power. Any security mechanism for sensor network must be energy efficient as security is the major concerned when they will be used in large scale as sensors have limited power and computational capability and should not be computational intensive. Here we study the energy-efficient secure routing protocol for wireless networks based on data aggregation we observed in our study following energy-efficient techniques which are Designated path (DP) Scheme, TDMA as the MAC layer Protocols, EF-Tree (Earliest-First Tree) and SID (Source-Initiated Dissemination) According to Fuzzy Variables, Energy Efficient Clustering Protocol (Fz-Leach), OEERP (Optimized Energy Efficient Routing Protocol), It is a cluster based protocol and Enhanced Heterogeneous LEACH (EHE-LEACH) Protocol for Lifetime Enhancement of SNs. Although Sensors don’t participate in the routing scheme their energy is conserved at each sensor node.
