A Comparative Study of Reactive Routing Protocols for Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks

There have been a continuously growing demand for the efficient and infrastructure less Industrial Automation Systems (IAS), to fulfill the rapid changes in real world requirements. During the past decade, wireless sensor networks have been evolved as a powerful tool for the industrial process monitoring and distributed control. In the Industrial wireless control system, sensor nodes are deployed over an area, to monitor physical and or environmental conditions such as temperature, pressure, vibration, motion, sound, humidity etc. For the reliable control function, measured parameters should be delivered to the actuators in real time and reliable manner. Thus, considering the energy constraints of sensor nodes various reactive routing protocols are being used for the real time and reliable message delivery. The aim of this paper is to present a comparative study of existing reactive routing protocols in Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (IWSNs).
