Abstract
In this paper, we have pesented a reliable data transfer mechanism using Directed Diffusion in WSNs (fireless Sensor Networks). This mechanism involves selecting a route with higher reachability and transferring data along the route chosen, which is based on the end-to-end reliability calculated by the dissemination procedure of Interest packets, while each node of a sensor network maintains the only information on its neighborhood. We performed various experiments changing the link error rates and the number of nodes and discovered that this proposed mechanism improves event-to-sink data transfer reliability in WSNs. We also found that this mechanism spreads traffic load over and reduces energy consumption, which in turn prolongs network lifetime.
