Wireless Sensor Networks are comprised of a vast number
of ultra-small, autonomous computing and communication
devices, with restricted energy, that co-operate to accomplish
a large sensing task. In this work: a) We propose
extended versions of two data propagation protocols for
such networks: the Sleep-Awake Probabilistic Forwarding
Protocol (SW-PFR) and the Hierarchical Threshold sensitive
Energy Efficient Network protocol (H-TEEN). These
non-trivial extensions improve the performance of the original
protocols, by introducing sleep-awake periods in the
PFR protocol to save energy, and introducing a hierarchy
of clustering in the TEEN protocol to better cope with large
networks, b) We implemented the two protocols and performed
an extensive simulation comparison of various important
measures of their performance with a focus on energy
consumption, c) We investigate in detail the relative
advantages and disadvantages of each protocol, d) We discuss
a possible hybrid combination of the two protocols towards
optimizing certain goals.
