Abstract
In this chapter, the authors present a literature review for MAC, routing, and cross layer design protocols proposed for WSN. This chapter consists of three sections. In the first section, the authors discuss in depth the most well-known MAC protocols for WSN. A comparison among theses protocols will be presented. Moreover, the major advantages and disadvantages of each protocol are discussed. The routing protocols for WSN are discussed in the second section. The discussed protocols are classified into data centric routing protocols, Hierarchical routing protocols, location based protocols, and QoS aware routing protocols. Moreover, A Classification of Routing Protocols based on the Application is presented in this section. In the third section, some cross layer design protocols are discussed. A comparison among the discussed protocols according to layers integrated, intended applications, cross-layer objectives, and the evaluation approach, is presented.
