Adaptive Majority-based Re-routing for Differentiated Delay in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

The main purpose of a sensor network is information gathering and delivery. Therefore, the quantity and quality of the data delivered to the end-user is very important. In this paper, we focus on building one aspect of service quality based routing model as delay called MRHD which can route packets towards the destination node by classifying data into differentiated classes. Moreover, MRHD employs an adaptive policy called majority based re-routing policy in order to route the packets with instantaneously change in number implying occurrence of special events via paths with lower delay.
