Evaluation models for different routing protocols in wireless sensor networks

This thesis aims to introduce the evaluation parameters of Lifetime, Density, Radius, and Reliability for the applications of wireless sensor networks. A series of simulation results have been obtained for the Single-hop, LEACH and Nearest Closer routing protocols which have been implemented in J-Sim simulation platform. Simulation results have been analyzed and several evaluation models have been proposed respectively. Thus, simulations may not be necessary for the users to choose a suitable routing protocol.
