Abstract
It is knotty for current routing protocols to meet the needs of reliable data diffusion during the Internet of Things (IoT) deployments. Due to the random placement, limited resources and unattended features of existing sensor nodes, the wireless transmissions are easily exposed to unauthorized users, which becomes a vulnerable area for various malicious attacks, such as wormhole and Sybil attacks. However, the scheme based on geographic location is a suitable candidate to defend against them. This paper is inspired to propose a smart collaborative routing protocol, Geographic energy aware routing and Inspecting Node (GIN), for guaranteeing the reliability of data exchanging. The proposed protocol integrates the directed diffusion routing, Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR), and the inspecting node mechanism. We first discuss current wireless routing protocols from three diverse perspectives (improving transmission rate, shortening transmission range and reducing transmission consumption). Then, the details of GIN, including the model establishment and implementation processes, are presented by means of the theoretical analysis. Through leveraging the game theory, the inspecting node is elected to monitor the network behaviors. Thirdly, we evaluate the network performances, in terms of transmission delay, packet loss ratio, and throughput, between GIN and three traditional schemes (i.e., Flooding, GPSR, and GEAR). The simulation results illustrate that the proposed protocol is able to outperform the others.

Summary
The rapid evolution of Internet of Things (IoT) promotes the life quality and work efficiency for human [1]. The IoT is a creative pattern of connecting various things, which contains two meanings. The core and foundation of the IoT are still the network, which is an extension and expansion of the Internet. The end users are extended to any items for information exchange and communication, i.e., the connection of objects. Due to the sensing function and wireless communication capability, the applications of IoT are providing broad prospects. As the most representative member of IoT, the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) can serve as a general platform for many domains, such as measurement of various environmental parameters (temperature, pressure, humidity, light, etc.). For the commercial and military applications, secure and reliable communications are crucial for maintaining data dependability and confidentiality [3]
