Overall performance of Flooding Sequence Protocol in Wireless Sensor Networks

In this project we are going to study about the performance of family of four flooding sequence protocols in wireless sensor networks using simulation and analyze which protocol having better performance compared to other three protocols.. Flooding is a communication technique that can be used by the base station of the sensor network requires to send a message to each and every sensors in the network. When a sensor receives the flood message, it needs to check whether it receives for first time or not. If it received for first time it is fresh message or it already exists means the message is redundant. If the sensor receives the fresh message it will alert the base station to evacuate the people to safer place. To avoid the redundancy, the family of flooding sequence protocols are designed to distinguish the fresh message and redundant message. The family of flooding sequence protocol are sequence free protocol, linear sequence protocol, circular sequence protocol and differentiated sequence protocol. We analyze the stabilization properties of four protocols and compared the each performance of protocols using simulation, using over settings of sensor networks.
