Abstract: The applications of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprise a wide variety of scenarios. One of the limitations of WSN is their inherent limited energy resource and is the main design criterion for routing data in WSN. The network is composed of a significant number of nodes deployed in an extensive area in which not all nodes are directly connected, here the source nodes or intermediate nodes select a next node to forward the data to the destination based on different criteria, the data exchange is supported by multi hop communications. Routing protocols are in charge of discovering and maintaining the routes in the network. However, the appropriateness of a particular routing protocol mainly depends on the capabilities of the nodes and on the application requirements. So here we study various data forwarding techniques and we analyze the energy-efficiency and the useful lifetime of the system. This paper presents a review of the main routing protocols proposed for wireless sensor networks.
Keywords: Wireless sensor network, distance based, energy based and multiple criterions based, energy efficiency.
