Description
Summary:Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a large number of small sensor devices that can connect to each other wirelessly.WSNs applications are rapidly growing in last decades.In WSN research, energy is one of the very important things that must be considered.Due to the fact that almost all of nodes’ energy is depleted in the communication part, this paper studies the impact of fusing vs non-fusing of data for chain based routing protocols, where the routing protocol designer should consider it.In this study, NS3 simulator used to evaluate Chain-Cluster Mixed (CCM) and Two Stage Chain Protocol (TSCP) routing protocols with deterministic nodes deployment.The experiments show that TSCP overcomes CCM in network life time when data fusing applied while CCM overcomes TSCP in the same metric with non-fusing of data for First Node Die (FND), 10%, 25%, 50% and Last node (LND).Furthermore, CCM is still playing a good behavior in delay for both approaches. The main conclusion for this paper is non-fusing of data must be apply when design new routing protocol to study all the packets traffic behaviors in the path from source to destination.
