Abstract: High performance with low power consumption is an essential factor in wireless sensor networks (WSN). In order to address the issue on the lifetime and the consumption of nodes in WSNs, an improved ad hoc on-demand distance vector routing (IAODV) algorithm is proposed based on AODV and LAR protocols. This algorithm is a modified on-demand routing algorithm that limits data forwarding in the searching domain, and then chooses the route on basis of hop count and power consumption. The simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively reduce power consumption as well as prolong the network lifetime.
