Study of Proactive Routing Protocol in Wildfire Detection Using Mobile Sensor Networks

Abstract

ABSTRACT Mobile sensor networks include different routing protocols. The performance of these routing protocols differs in terms of transmitting and receiving the packets, where it depends on the architecture of each routing protocol. However, despite there are many protocols that have been proposed, but they have not implemented broadly in disasters, where there is a need to study the routing protocols in disasters such as forest fire detection. Therefore, this paper is present a proactive routing protocol called Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR). This protocol has implemented in the detection of forest fire based on a different number of mobile sensor nodes in the range of 10-50 nodes with an increment step of 10 nodes. Furthermore, the performance of the OLSR protocol is evaluated in terms of Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-to-End Delay (E2E Delay), energy consumption, and routing overhead. The performance of the OLSR protocol shows encouraging results in the detection of forest fire.
