Simulation of the TEEN and the SPIN Protocols in a Wireless Sensor Network Environment

— In WSN, sensor nodes have a limited transmission range. In fact, their processing and storage capabilities as well as their energy resources are also limited. However, regular routing protocols for wireless devices are not well suitable for sensors due to the constraints of their resources. These protocols ensure the duty of maintaining network routing and reliable single/multi-hop communication which requires considerable energy consumption. In this paper, we present our java-based simulators that implement two state-of-the-art wireless sensor network protocols: TEEN and SPIN. Our goal is to compare them vis-à-vis the energy consumption and the average throughput at each node. Our experimentations show a better performance with SPIN in terms of energy consumption protocol. On the other hand, the TEEN protocol shows a slightly higher throughput performance due to the absence of advertising messages as in most reactive routing protocols.
