Data Forwarding in Adhoc Wireless Sensor Network Using Shortest Path Algorithm

P.K.Singh, Narendra Pal Singh

Wireless sensor networks find potential in military, environments, health and commercial applications. The process of forwarding data from a remote sensor node to other nodes in a network holds importance for such applications. Various constraints such as limited computation, storage and power makes the process of data routing interesting and has opened new arenas for researchers. The fundamental problem in sensor networks states the relevance and routing of data through a genuine path as path length decides some basic performance parameters for sensor networks. This paper strongly focuses on a shortest path algorithm for adhoc networks. The simulations are performed on NS2 and the results obtained discuss the role of data forwarding through a shortest path.
