Abstract

Recently, energy optimization in WSNs have strained more and more attention. Enhancing the network lifetime in WSNs is based on minimizing messages exchanged by nodes. Various routing protocols have been proposed to improve the performance of WSNs. Among these protocols, tree-based routing protocols can increase the power efficiency of the network considerably. In this paper, we will evaluate two hierarchical protocols; RPL with the clustering routing protocols DEEC. To evaluate the performance capability of each protocol, comparison results based on the simulation tool Cooja applied in WSN operating system Contiki are presented in this paper.
