A Novel Routing Protocol for Low-Energy Wireless Sensor Networks

Algorithm 1

Steps for OEERP Algorithm

Step 1. Install the node into a network

(Input parameter: optima distance and threshold energy

Output parameter: sleep/awake scheduling)

Step 2. Check the optima distance and threshold energy

Step 3. Set the flow rate

Step 4. Calculate the priority node value

Step 5. Check the entire node for priority

Step 6. Put to sleep the high-priority node

Step 7. Calculate the sleep interval time to sleep

Step 8. Wake up the node after the sleep interval

Step 9. Start the data relaying process
