Abstract: This paper proposes an all-IP WSN formation scheme based on location information. In the scheme, the all-IP WSN architecture based on location information is proposed and it can use a small number of backbone nodes to cover the entire WSN area, so the network formation cost and delay are reduced. Based on the architecture, the backbone node election algorithm and the backbone tree formation algorithm are proposed. Through a backbone tree, the routing can be achieved without either route discovery or routing information storage. Based on the architecture, the backbone tree maintenance algorithm is also proposed to maintain the backbone tree topology so that the routing correctness can be ensured. The performance parameters of this proposal are evaluated and compared, and the data results show that this proposal effectively reduces the network formation delay and cost.
