Abstract

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is an emerging technology which offers facilities of data acquisition to various applications especially for harsh environment and unreachable area implementations. A WSN consists of a number of sensor nodes that collect the information of the environment phenomenon changes in the required field and disseminate the data until it reaches the base station. This project focuses on determining the best combination of Topology Construction (TC) and Topology Maintenance (TM) for a WSN. Each of TC and TM algorithms were studied to understand their working principle and mechanism. The performance of TCs, TMs and their combinations are investigated through simulation works by using a WSN simulator called Atarraya. The performance comparison of several TC-TM combinations are analyzed based on the number of messages sent, energy spent ratio and network lifetime. The simulation results show that the combination of A3 and Energy Local Patching DSR outperforms other TC-TM combinations when implemented in a 100 node dense network.
