Self-determining Geographic Routing considering Mobility in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks

Geographic routing is a promising candidate for large-scale wireless ad hoc networks due to its simplicity and scalability. In Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (MWSNs), sensor nodes with limited power and resources usually propagate data packets in a multihop fashion. Therefore, it is essential to increase network lifetime in wireless sensor networks. Thus, we propose a self- determining geographic routing considering mobility in MWSNs. In this paper, a relay node is selected based on remaining energy, location and mobility. The experimental result shows that the proposed scheme can provide an efficient greedy forwarding scheme in terms of energy consumption and the end-to-end delay.
