Abstract: In this paper, we propose a Transmission Power Control(TPC) algorithm for power management, energy-efficiency and delay-aware communication in wireless sensor network.Transmission Power Control Algorithm not only prolong the lifetime of sensor nodes by saving the energy consumption but enhance throughput and performance of packet delivery ratio.Apart from that, it can also reduce the interference between transmitting nodes.According to this algorithm, each node utilizes the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator)value to determine the appropriate transmission power for its neighbors.Proposed algorithm can dynamically adjust the transmission power with the environment change.The experimental results show that our algorithm can save power energy, improve network lifetime, throughput and packet delivery ratio.It enables each node to determine and regulate its transmission strategy to provide minimum energy consumption without sacrificing end-to-end delay performance and also each node can select an optimal path for data transmission.It is implemented using Network Simulator-2.
