A novel multi-layer architecture for wireless sensor networks

In this paper, we present a novel hierarchical architecture for a large wireless sensor network wherein sensors are arranged into a multilayer architecture with the nodes at each layer interconnected as a de Bruijn graph and provide a hierarchical routing algorithm in the network. Using our approach, every sensor obtains a unique node identifier addressed by binary addressing fashion. We show that our algorithm has reasonable fault-tolerance, admits simple and decentralized routing, and offers easy extensibility. Besides, we also present simulation results using two metrics: the end-to-end delay and the success data delivery radio. To evaluate how well our protocol support, we compare our protocol with other protocol using two these metrics
