Wireless Sensor Network Protocol: Sensor Protocol for Information via Negotiation (SPIN)
A wireless sensor network is formed using multiple small sensors. Such a network is a self- organized infrastructure-less wireless network that monitors environmental conditions on its own and transmit data in a synchronized manner to main location called sink which analyses the data. Sink addresses the queries generated by users by collecting results and providing required information. Routing protocols play an important role in producing efficient and interruption less communication within the nodes of the WSN. Applications using WSN demand quick data transmission with minimum interruption. The service, performance and reliability of the WSN depends on the choice of its routing protocol. This article discusses Sensor protocol for information via negotiation (SPIN) which allow exchange of data effectively over a WSN. Sensor Protocol for Information via Negotiation (SPIN) This routing protocol is basically for exchanging data about the sensor data in network operation. It is a neg...
