Abstract

Wireless sensor network is widely used in many different scenarios. The localization information is crucial for the operation of WSN. Localization based geocast minimizes the number of radio transmissions by enhancing network lifetime and avoids traffic which in turn saves energy. Geocast sends packets to all sensor nodes within a specified geographical region in order to gather data from sensor nodes in that region. The new system proposes a location based multicast protocols for connecting geocast nodes using an energy efficient broadcasting technique without making any restrictions on the shape of the geocast region. It reduces the energy consumption during the phase of sending commands to the sensor nodes in a geocast region. Then we modify the protocol to include security mechanisms using localization to protect the data being transferred over, not only from outside attackers but also compromised inside attackers.
