In this article, a cooperative communication network based on energy-harvesting (EH) decode-and-forward (DF) relays that harvest energy from the ambience using buffers with harvest-store-use (HSU) architecture is considered. An opportunistic routing (OR) protocol, which selects transmission path of packet node priority, proposed to improve data delivery in network. Additionally, an algorithm st...

Energy conservation has always been a prominent design goal for hierarchical routing protocols supporting sink mobility. Advertising the current position of mobile introduces control packet overhead which ultimately results in an increase energy consumption and shorter network lifetime. harvesting through ambient sources have enabled utilization rechargeable devices Wireless Sensor Networks to ...
