Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks using MDSAP, Model for a Hospital Application

This paper covers sensor networks, their different applications and problems encountered and in particular the routing problem which constitutes a major constraint in sensor networks today. The modified directional source aware routing protocol (DSAP) is presented. The goals intended were to build on the work already started on the modified DSAP algorithm for routing in a WSN network, try to find the right structure for each component in the model based on its properties, then combining all of the elements in one complete structure that serves fixed and mobile users. The ideas were inspired by the GSM and TCP/IP technologies, and tend to apply some of their concepts in the model of the hospital.
