Abstract

In Wireless Sensor Network all sensor nodes have the equal probability to fail and therefore the data delivery in sensor networks is inherently faulty and unpredictable. Most of the sensor network applications need reliable data delivery to sink instead of point-to-point reliability. Therefore, it is vital to provide fault tolerant techniques for distributed sensor network applications. This paper presents a robust recovery mechanism of nodes failure in a certain region of the network during data delivery. It dynamically finds new node to route data from source nodes to sink. The proposed algorithm is integrated easily in data delivery mechanisms [11] where area failure in a certain geographical region is not considered. This recovery mechanism is focused on multiple-sink partitioned network. It is found that it quickly selects alternative node from its 1-hop neighbor list when there are no forwarding nodes available and establishes route from source to sink. Simulations are done in Matlab environment.
