Investigating Power-Aware Protocols for Wireless Sensor Network Durability

Abstract

The paper reviews existing literature, analysing the strengths and limitations of different power-aware protocols deployed in WSNs. It explores how these protocols impact overall network durability, considering energy efficiency, communication overhead, and adaptability to dynamic environmental conditions. Furthermore, the research assesses the practical implications of implementing power-aware protocols in real-world scenarios, offering insights into their performance, reliability, and potential challenges. Case studies and experimental results are presented to illustrate the impact of these protocols on the longevity and sustained functionality of wireless sensor networks. The findings of this investigation contribute valuable knowledge to the field, offering guidance for researchers, engineers, and practitioners seeking to optimise power-aware protocols for prolonged durability in wireless sensor networks.
