Abstract

The routing protocol plays a key role in allowing packets to reach their intended destination. We are interested in wireless nanonetworks (WNNs), which totally differ from traditional wireless networks in terms of node density and size, routing protocol used, and hardware limitations. This paper presents an enhanced retransmission algorithm used by the nodes in the destination zone, in combination with our previously proposed nanosleeping mechanism. This algorithm increases the chance of a destination node to capture the intended packet, while decreasing the number of participating nodes in the retransmission process. We evaluate the enhanced retransmission algorithm and show its effectiveness in reducing node resource usage while maintaining a high packet delivery to the destination node.
