Abstract
Recent research in communication moves towards cyber space with modern applications such as multimedia surveillance, smart autonomous traffic control, advanced health care monitoring, industrial automation, and continuous remote environmental and structural monitoring. Such applications are extensively generates multimedia information and converse through Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs). Path selection plays vital role in transmitting the multimedia data over wireless networks. Single path selection incurs routing failure due to the energy hole because of power shortage and traffic congestion. Due to energy hole in any particular node the packet gets dropped in the route from source to destination. The multipath routing algorithm selects more than one path to increase the rate of the packet delivery than the single path routing. The prediction of energy deficiency in sensor nodes is becoming over head in WSMNs. In order to improve the packet delivery and performance of the network, in this paper a Priority Based Multipath Routing Algorithm (PBMRA) is proposed. It consists of three modules: The Neighbourhood Selection identifies the neighbours; Multipath Construction constructs multiple paths from the indentified neighbours; and Priority Selection selects the high energized routes based on the priority of node attributes such as liveliness, path delay and hop count. The proposed algorithm is experimentally compared with other existing algorithms such as AODV, DSR, DSDV and OLSR. The experimental results show that the PBMRA algorithm increases the overall throughput, packet received rate and provides the reliable route than existing algorithms.
