Abstract

In this paper, we seek the improvement of a newly developed Static Channel Width Routeless Routing (SCWRR) protocol which uses a self-determined Geographical Forwarding MASNET. Even though our previously obtained results are very competitive with peer protocols, we will strive to explore all venues in order to enhance protocol efficiency, one of such venues is to vary the source-destination channel width. The adaptive channel width simulation results show an enhancement in the power budget of about 10% over the static approach. Such enhancement may prove to be critical in some sensor network applications, making our protocol more amenable in the MASNET domain.
