Application of sensor networks in different fields is an interesting area to work with and has already drawn widespread attention. Since sensors have limited supply of on-board energy, efficient management of network is a compulsion in extending life of the sensor. At the same time, frequent damage to sensors and link failure occur because of the adverse environment in which they are deployed. A sensor network has to tolerate and recover from these failures themselves with no external help. In this respect, we have designed a self-stabilizing energy-aware routing protocol in a sensor network. Our protocol ensures the sensor network, starting from an arbitrary state, eventually set up reliable communication in network with minimum energy consumption and in a finite number of steps.
