In a wireless sensor network (WSN), retransmission and acknowledgement (ACK) are required to make reliable packet delivery. In this paper, a Network Coding based Power Efficient Routing (NCPER) algorithm integrated with multi-path routing algorithms is proposed to eliminate retransmission and ACK, which guarantees that the receiving node can decode the original data sent by a source node so that the source node need not care whether the transmitted packets are lost or not. In addition, numeric experiments are conducted to show impacts of packet size and finite field size on energy cost of the NCPER. The NCPER expends energy efficiently and alleviates radio interferences among nodes.
