AN ACTIVE ROUTING FOR INFORMATION INTEGRITY IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are envisioned to be the next generation of networks which will form an integral part of man’s lives and which provide a bridge between the real physical and virtual worlds. WSNs should be able to support various applications over the same platform. Different applications might have different QoS requirements Supporting the preliminary requirements for providing Quality-of-Service (QoS), which is necessary for diverse applications, is directly related to energy consumption, delay, reliability, distortion, and network lifetime. There is an inevitable correlation between levels of quality of accessible services in WSNs and energy consumption in these networks, while obtaining any of these bases acquires the influential interaction on the other.
