Abstract

Green Internet of Things (IoT) generally refers to the new generation IoT design concept focusing on energy conservation and emission reduction, to minimize environmental pollution and resource waste, and to realize hazard-free emissions for the human body and the environment. Green IoT reduces energy expenditure by transforming and optimizing network devices and introducing new technology. In wireless sensor network, node resource constraints make the energy expenditure reduction of nodes and the prolongation of network lifetime the most important issue. Moreover, highly dynamic wireless links make reliable data transmission inevitable. Therefore, sending reliable sensor data to a goal node needs energy-conserving and highly fault-tolerant routing solutions. This chapter introduces two routing protocols: reliable energy-efficient routing and K-cooperative nodes routing: these are mainly used to deploy multi-hop collaborative wireless sensor network communication in unreliable environments.
