Abstract
In the application of wireless sensor networks to monitor valuable assets under concern, the appearance of a certain asset can be identified and reported simultaneously by several adjacent nodes, and this may dissipate the power of related nodes and network bandwidth as well. In the proposed method, a node that senses the appearance of some asset is allowed to send the sensing-reporting packet only after it has been being idle for a certain period without receiving any DRP(Don't Report Packet) from neighbors. It turns out that not only the cost of propagating DRPs but also that of reporting the events to the sink becomes minimal when depth of each DRP propagation is 2. In case of depth 1, at least, two routes are set up for the delivery of the sensing-reporting packet hence, reliable transfer to the sink is provided.
