Abstract

Abstract The world around us will soon be interconnected as a pervasive network of intelligent devices. Through this, people will be able to get online and have almost continuous access to their preferred services. WSN (Wireless Sensor Networks) is the emerging technology expected to prevail in the pervasive computing environrnent of the future. Geographic routing protocol is an attractive localized routing scheme for wireless sensor networks because of its directional routing properties and scalability. Sensor nodes are highly energy-constrained. Also, sensor nodes can be deployed in a hostile condition. This is the reason why we have to consider not only the energy but also the wireless link condition. In this paper, we propose a geographic routing scheme considering the wireless link condition. If wireless link condition is not considered, the node which is at the end distance of the transitional region where packets can be received with errors can be selected as the next hop. This draws out retransmis...
