Abstract

In the context of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), in this paper, the authors present a new agent based routing protocol named Fast Rumor Agents protocol (FRA). The FRA protocol optimizes the agent (respectively the query) propagation through the network preventing backward paths. With FRA, a rumor must have a straight trajectory, reducing the total overhead of the network. Performances comparisons of ZRR and FRA protocols show that the main contributions of FRA protocol are the reduction of time of path establishment, the overhead caused in the network, and consequently, the energy consumption.
