Abstract
One of the most compelling challenges of the next decade is the ”last-meter” problem, how to extend the expanding data network into end-user data-collection and monitoring devices. This part of the network is called Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN). A Wireless Sensor Network is a particular case of WPAN which has the following particular constraints : low bitrate, low cost and very low energy consumption. In this article, we present a Multi-Path Source Routing protocol (MPSR) which is adapted to Wireless Sensor Networks. This routing protocol exploit the different discovery paths to transmit data, this guaranteed to us a repartition of the energy consumption in all possible nodes that can route data to the destination.
