A Simulation-Based Performance Analysis of Various Multipath Routing Techniques in ZigBee Sensor Networks

Multipath routing is generally known for its highly effective performance in applications involving data streaming. However, to date, only a handful of research studies have looked at the performance of multipath routing in WSN systems. Moreover, according to our knowledge, there has been no earlier study on the use of multipath routing in ZigBee WSNs.
