Network Lifetime Enhancement of Wireless Sensor Networks Using EFRP Protocol

Wireless Sensor Network is a group of sensor nodes used to monitor and record the environment's physical conditions. The significant challenges in designing the sensor are antenna type, components, memory, lifetime, security, computational capability, communication technology, energy consumption, etc. The proposed scheme improves the lifetime of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and provides a better solution for link failure between the sensor nodes. To support quick rerouting between sources to destination, the proposed Extended Fast Routing Protocol (EFRP) calls for a backup route previously to be had at every node. Hence the new routing path can be relocated on it without a broken route using the algorithms: Major path request, Major path reply, Additional path request, and Additional path reply in Wireless Sensor Networks. This path reestablishment also focuses on higher energy efficiency and lower delay. The proposed Extended Fast Routing Protocol (EFRP) initiates dominant and support routes before beginning data handover. NS-2 simulation outcomes of EFRP take less time and manage communication to set up precise, fast rerouting paths, minimal delay, minimum energy consumption, and better network lifetime compared to the existing schemes.
