Architecture based routing is further classified into two main areas: flat or location based routing protocol, and hierarchical based routing protocols. Flat based routing is more suitable when a huge number of sensor nodes are deployed, and location based routing is employed when nodes are aware of their location. Hierarchical routing look into alternative approach by placing intermediate nodes in terms of cluster heads, gateway nodes, or mobile entities for efficient handling of energy. The survey is presented in order to highlight the advantage of hierarchical based routing, mainly the deployment of mobility routing. As not many surveys have been conducted in mobility based routing, this chapter can be helpful for looking into a new perspective and paradigm of energy efficient routing protocols. © 2012, IGI Global. date: 2012 publisher: IGI Global official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84898582953&doi=10.4018%2f978-1-4666-0101-7.ch010&partnerID=40&md5=aab7af5af6295f999769456aa3059fb5 id_number: 10.4018/978-1-4666-0101-7.ch010 full_text_status: none publication: Wireless Sensor Networks and Energy Efficiency: Protocols, Routing and Management pagerange: 237-261 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781466601017 citation: Ponnusamy, V. and Abdullah, A. and Downe, A.G.
