Abstract

Scalability of routing protocols used in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a critical issue due to the extremely high node numbers and relatively high node density. A good routing protocol has to be scalable and adaptive to the changes in the network topology. Thus protocols must perform well as the network grows larger or as the workload increases. In this paper, we performed a mathematical verification and the evaluation for proposed scalable property of a given WSN has been computed. This computation showed the limitation and capability of the WSN scalability and specifically for Flooding and SPIN protocols.
