Transmission Capability

A large amount of image and video streaming need to be transmitted in wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs), and a single path can not meet the requirement of image and video streaming transmission. Multipath routing protocol can increase transmission capability and be appropriate for WMSNs. TPGF is the first multipath routing protocol which is suitable for WMSNs. After TPGF is analyzed deeply, we propose an Energy Balancing Multipath Routing protocol (EBMR) which considers nodes' residual energy and the distance between the node and the sink. Compared to TPGF, EBMPR can more evenly consume nodes' energy and prolong the network lifetime. Simulation results show the advantage of EBMR.
