Abstract

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) consists of small battery powered nodes. Energy efficiency and energy balancing are the most stringent needs of WSN for prolonging its lifetime. Due to many-to-one communication pattern in multi-hop communication, energy consumption is unbalanced in the network. Nodes which are closer to sink deplete their energy much faster than the nodes further away. This paper reviews and presents a comparative study of the various data gathering protocols that aim at balancing energy consumption using mixed/hybrid transmission schemes. It also highlights the aspects of the existing approaches that can be worked upon to achieve a more energy efficient and energy balanced data gathering approach in future.
