Abstract: Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are having high attention since there are huge developments and vast applications in the military and environmental applications. In this paper, the software implementation of energy efficient distributed receiver (EEDR) based protocol for WSN using MATLAB is discussed. The proposed mechanism uses information related to channel information, transmission range of sensor nodes and minimum hop. The main objectives of the proposed work include: 1) reduced delay; 2) reduced control packet overhead; 3) increased throughput; 4) high residual energy of all nodes in the network. The EEDR performance is compared with related research works such as traffic estimation-based receiver initiated MAC (TERI-MAC) and the receiver-initiated packet train (RIPT) protocol and also the performance variations due to fluctuations in the propagation conditions is evaluated. The result section discusses the attainment of reduced control overhead, reduced delay, high throughput, and high residual energy of all nodes in the network.

Keywords: channel quality; energy; path loss; receiver; sender; throughput.
