In this research, a cross layer design methodology was adopted to design an energy efficient routing protocol entitled "Position Responsive Routing Protocol" (PRRP). PRRP is designed to minimize energy consumed in each node by (1) reducing the amount of time in which a sensor node is in an idle listening state and (2) reducing the average communication distance over the network. The performance of the proposed PRRP was critically evaluated in the context of network lifetime, throughput, and energy consumption of the network per individual basis and per data packet basis. The research results were analyzed and benchmarked against the well-known LEACH and CELRP protocols. The outcomes show a significant improvement in the WSN in terms of energy efficiency and the overall performance of WSN. © 2016 Noor Zaman et al. date: 2016 publisher: Hindawi Limited official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84982792128&doi=10.1155%2f2016%2f9278701&partnerID=40&md5=5e9421b6a45b86024e1697a338701cc5 id_number: 10.1155/2016/9278701 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Sensors volume: 2016 refereed: TRUE issn: 1687725X citation: Zaman, N. and Tang Jung, L. and Yasin, M.M.
