Abstract

This paper proposes a methodology for performance evaluation of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) routing protocols. The methodology is simulation based and it considers the life time of the network (both the number of rounds before the death of the first node and the number of rounds before the death of the last node), the residual energy and the energy of the energy dissipation. The methodology was tested using LEACH protocol
