Current research on routing of sensor data mostly focused on protocols that are energy aware to maximize the lifetime of the network, scalable for large number of sensor nodes and tolerant to sensor damage and battery exhaustion. In this paper an efficient energy aware routing protocol was proposed. The proposed routing protocol has two major goals which are low power consumption and low end to end delay. We evaluated the performance of the proposed protocol under different scenarios. Simulation results confirmed that the proposed protocol has more efficient energy consumption in comparison with the traditional SPEED protocol. Furthermore, the proposed routing protocol can find the optimal path with a low end to end delay. We believe that, by using data aggregation techniques the higher performance will be achievable. Also using other cost functions for route selection makes the proposed protocol suitable for other applications.
