Abstract
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is an innovative ad-hoc network with distributed
sensing and processing capacities made up of collection of sensor nodes. The sensors
transmit information to the sink. The routing protocols for WSNs are based mostly
on efficiency of energy and some deal with real-time requirements. In this paper, a
comparative study between Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH),
Stable Election Protocol (SEP) and Hierarchical Adaptive Balanced energy-efficient
Routing Protocol (HABRP) would be conducted being heterogeneous sensors are
employed in order to attain an energy-efficient routing protocol in the sensor
network field. The paper typically discusses an energy management of routing
protocol in order to attain the safety analysis of a railway track monitoring. A sensor
network in mesh topology has been used to detect the cracks with incorporated
camera embedded along the railway track for proper end-to-end data delivery with
minimum communication energy. The simulation has been done by MATLAB
software environment. On the design process of railway track failure monitoring our
desired routing protocol HABRP satisfies an improvement compared with LEACH by
76%.This system furnishes a cheap, reliable, flexible, and intellectual alternative for
the existing system.
