Abstract

With other quality of service metrics, scalability and delay metrics are major design attributes for WSN routing protocols. A single level routing can increase the load on gateway nodes which can cause latency and reliability issues. But multilevel routing can overcome this by reducing communication distance among nodes. Distance can be calculated among the nodes via location based routing. But energy aware routing is are beneficial in WSN. With distance calculation, end –to- end delay attribute is considered as important attribute of WSN. This delay is considered in QoS metrics aware protocols. In this chapter, classification of multi hop network structure protocols is done in three categories (i) hierarchical routing protocols (ii) flat routing protocols and location based routing protocols. We have thrown light on the different parameters of comparative routing protocols with research insights.
