Abstract

Sensor networks will always suffer from load imbalance, which causes bottlenecks to the communication links. In order to address this problem, a multi-path routing algorithm based on data-fusion-mechanism (MR-DFM) is proposed in this work. In this algorithm, the Mobile Sink controls the clustered energy consumption of the nodes in the event domain according to the delay messages relayed by the neighbor nodes. Meanwhile, the optimal neighbor node in the candidate set is obtained according to the data stream of the neighbor nodes to perform the relay of the data packets. It is shown via simulation results that the proposed MR-DFM algorithm shows obvious improvement according to the energy consumption of the network throughput of the sensing data and the throughput of the sensing data and each hop of the neighbor nodes. Therefore, it is verified that the proposed MR-DFM algorithm shows remarkable data fusion effects and optimizes the network resources.
