Summary: This paper presents a distributed routing protocol called SplitPath for dual-radio Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) that computes two vertex-disjoint paths with the same parity. It is the first protocol to use multiple paths in dual-radio WSNs to achieve maximum throughput. Experimental results show that our approach improves throughput by 60% and achieves 96% of the maximum theoretical limit.

Summary: In this study, a low-energy first electoral multipath alternating multihop (LEMH) routing scheme is proposed to address the premature death of overloaded nodes in wireless sensor networks. By assigning adaptive contention radius to nodes, the scheme avoids node overload and enables nodes to combine remaining energy to vote for cluster heads. The final cluster head is determined based on two-dimensional competition parameters. The study also formulates an energy balance lifetime maximization routing problem and solves it using particle swarm optimization, providing an improved multihop transmission scheme for WSNs.
