Data Collection Energy Efficient Routing Protocol

In this book, a Data Collection Energy-Efficient Routing Protocol with Harvested Energy is proposed. The node¿s energy, energy harvesting rate, packet data rate and node capability are considered in the DEECP protocol to choose the best path. Moreover, a handover local route repair mechanism is integrated in the DEECP protocol. Extensive simulation experiments were conducted using NS-3 to study the behavior of DEECP. We have compared DEECP with AODV and IEEE 802.11s at proactive mode using different performance metrics. The DEECP protocol has shown an outstanding perform in term of increasing the flow application throughput by 1148%, decreasing the packet loss ratio by 80%, and decreasing the packet end-to-end delay by 65% with respect to AODV. In addition, DEECP outperform IEEE 802.11s at proactive mode in term of increasing the flow application throughput by 284%, decreasing the packet loss ratio by 16%, and decreasing the packet end-to-end delay by 75%.
