Abstract :
In our proposed multipath routing scheme, remaining battery capacity, mobility, and distance to the destination location of candidate sensors in the local communication range are taken into consideration for next hop relay node selection, and a fuzzy logic system is applied to the decision making. Simulation results show that this scheme can extend the network lifetime longer than the original geographic routing scheme which only considers distance to the destination location, and this scheme can reduce the frame loss rate and link failure rate, since mobility is considered.
