Abstract:
Wireless sensor networks are expected to ?nd wide applicability and increasing deployment in the near future. In this paper, we propose a formal classi?cation of sensor networks, based on their mode of functioning , as proactive and reactive networks. Reactive networks ,as opposed to passive data collecting proactive networks, respond immediately to changes in the relevant parameters of interest. We also introduce a new energy ef?cient protocol for temperature sensing application, TEEN (Threshold sensitive Energy Ef?cient sensor Network protocol) for reactive networks. In terms of energy ef?ciency, our protocol has been observed to outperform existing conventional sensor network protocols.
