This document presents a research paper on location-based routing protocols and their performance in wireless sensor networks. It discusses the objectives, introduction, literature review, motivation, experimental results, conclusion, and future scope of the research. The key points are:
- The objectives are to study different location-based routing protocols, conduct simulations to evaluate their performance based on network parameters, and recommend protocols to improve network performance.
- Location-based routing uses sensor node positions to calculate distances and estimate energy consumption. Protocols discussed include GAF, GEAR, GPSR, and DREAM.
- Simulation results show that GEAR and GPSR perform better than others in terms of data loss and network delay. GEAR
