| Abstract | New advancements in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), lead to many novel routing protocols specifically designed by considering QoS and energy efficiency as the main objective, to maximize the whole network efficiency and lifetime. As the issue of Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning in WSN networks has been acquiring increasing importance, particularly in view of the domains of application of these networks i.e., defense operations, emergency rescue missions, Health and Multimedia traffic, where we have need of more accuracy and guarantee for timely data transfer, therefore, to fulfill the requirements of these real time applications associated with wireless sensor networks, it is required that more reliable and dependable energy aware QoS based routing protocol in WSN should be developed for the usage of sensor nodes efficiently. The objective of this research is to focus on challenges related to the architecture and operation of handling QoS routing traffic in sensor network and designing an energy-aware QoS based routing protocol for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) which will stumble on least cost, transmission energy, error rate and other communication parameters to enhance the efficiency of WSN performance in Military, Health and Environmental applications. The tasks of the research project started with the deep Investigation of the problem requirement followed by Designing, Development, Simulation, Modeling and Finally comprehensive analysis of the simulation results. Two approaches, WSN Nodes with normal condition (Before any assumption) and WSN Nodes after Secondary Route & Gateway assumption a part, are used. Both approaches works fine and reduces the congestion of the network along with enhanced energy life, resulting the QoS of the network and increased energy efficiency in sufficient amount. |
