Abstract
This paper reports a numerical study of energy consumption and time efficiency of sensor networks with five different structural topologies and four different routing methods, regarding their performances and costs, which might provide some references and guidelines for designing sensor networks under various conditions for possible applications.
► A comprehensive comparative study of energy consumption and time efficiency of sensor networks. ► Five typical structural topologies and four different routing protocols are simulated, analyzed and compared. ► New findings may offer insight and reference for sensor networks design.
