Reinforcement Learning Framework for Opportunistic Routing in WSNs
Routing packets opportunistically is an essential part of multihop ad hoc wireless sensor networks. The existing routing techniques are not adaptive opportunistic. In this paper we have proposed an adaptive opportunistic routing scheme that routes packets opportunistically in order to ensure that packet loss is avoided. Learning and routing are combined in the framework that explores the optimal routing possibilities. In this paper we implemented this Reinforced learning framework using a customer simulator. The experimental results revealed that the scheme is able to exploit the opportunistic to optimize routing of packets even though the network structure is unknown.
