A comparative study of various routing classes and their key goals in wireless sensor networks

Regardless of the type of application and place of operation, one of the primary aims of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is basically to achieve data communication while attempting to preserve the energy in order to function for a longer time and to avoid connectivity collapse by employing effective and robust power management strategies. There are various obstacles which need to be addressed and overcome so as to design suitable and efficient routing protocols for WSNs. The main issues are associated with the limitation of sensor nodes such as restricted power, processing power, and other constrained resources. In this paper, we have presented a comparative study of various routing classes and their key goals in WSNs. This paper aims to explore the most important routing protocols designed for WSNs along with their primary goals and compare them for a better understanding and further researches.
