Abstract :
We propose a new routing algorithm for wireless sensor networks for post-disaster road monitoring in this paper in which the wireless sensor nodes are arranged in a linear manner. It thus becomes necessary for the design of more efficient routing algorithms for such types of applications. Our new algorithm includes route establishment, packet forwarding and route maintenance by considering the special characteristics of node placement and data transmission to make the algorithm more effective and efficient than general-purpose routing protocols.
