Load and Routing

Energy consumption is related to load and it is important to understand the various misconceptions that appear in the literature. Energy consumption is closely related to the routes that data packets follow and consequently, to the routing policy in the network.

Load dispersion for (a) conventional and (b) braided routing as a function of the distance from the sink node in wireless sensor networks.
