Abstract :
This paper analyzed some advantages and disadvantages of wireless sensor network protocols, and concluded the features of it. According to the features, the program members summarized its influence on the routing protocols, designed the models based on it and improved algorithms. They simulated the findings with OMNeT++, showing the rotation of cluster head can efficiently increase the lifetime of sensor nodes and decrease energy consumption, which is of significance to wireless sensor networks.
