Title
An energy-efficient cooperative MISO-based routing protocol for wireless sensor networks
Abstract
Cooperative transmission technique is now widely considered as a promising approach to combat fading and achieve energy efficiency in wireless networks. In this paper we focus on the routing problem in energy-constrained wireless sensor networks (WSNs), of which a cooperative MISO-based routing strategy is adopted. We first analyze the physical layer energy consumption model of cooperative transmission in the scenarios of one hop and hop-to-hop for energy-efficient routing in order to prolong the network lifetime. Based on this analysis, we disclose how the energy-efficient network routing problem is tightly related to the inter-cluster MISO node and hop-to-hop relay node selection. As we noticed, the problem of energyefficient cooperative routing is NP-hard innately which is difficult to implement in a totally distributive approach. Due to these analysis, a feasible algorithm with minimum cost is thus proposed. In the simulation part, we prove that our protocol can prolong the network lifetime tremendously when choose appropriate transmission parameters. Moreover, as an example, we simulate a typical network scenario which indicates our protocol is more energy efficient when comparing with vMIMO scheme in our previous work.
