Ansari Rehab Nafees, Sanjay B. Deshmukh . Performance Evaluation of PEGASIS and IEEPB Routing Protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks. Communications on Applied Electronics. 3, 4 ( November 2015), 49-52. DOI=10.5120/cae2015651944
Sensor webs consist of nodes and have limited battery power. Wireless Sensor Network is deployed to collect useful information from the field. Wireless Sensor Networks have characteristics like low cost, low energy consumption, distributed and self-organizing. WSN can be split into two groups that are hierarchical routing and flat routing. This paper focuses on efficient routing of energy. A detailed comparison with simulations on NS-2.35 of PEGASIS (Power Efficient Gathering In Sensor Information Systems) and IEEPB (Improved Energy Efficient (Power Efficient Gathering In Sensor Information Systems) and it has been deduced that IEEPB outperforms PEGASIS in terms of packet delivery ratio, energy efficiency, number of nodes active in every round and network lifetime.
