无线传感器网络路由协议研究综述

近年来，无线传感器网络作为国内外一个新兴的研究方向，吸引了许多研究者和机构的注意力。无线传感器网络的特性决定了其最主要的一个设计目标是有效使用片上受限资源（能量、内存和处理能力）以保持最长的生命周期。为此，许多研究工作通过研究不同应用下的网络层特性，提出了一系列路由协议。本文总结了相关方面的工作，对主要的协议进行分类比较和研究，并提出了一些值得继续工作的方面。

Survey on Routing Protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks

Recent advances in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have attracted so many researchers and institutes. One of the main goals in WSN is to maximum the lifetime of the whole network as well as to use the constrained embedded resources efficiently, such as energy, memory, and processing capacities. Many new routing protocols have been designed specifically according to different applications and network structures. This paper surveys these works, and research challenges are discussed based on the analysis and comparison.
