Protocol stack for sensor network

The protocol stack of sensor network combines power efficiency and least cost path routing.
The architecture consist of

1. Physical layer
2. Data link layer
3. Network layer
4. Transport layer
5. Application layer

All these layers are backed by management plane, mobility management plane and task management plane.

Physical layer is responsible for transmitting and receiving signals.
* The data link layer consists of medium access control [MAC] which is used to prevent packet collision.
* The network layer is responsible for routing the packets
* The application layer is used for creation of packets by making use of software.

* The power management plane monitors the sensor’s power level among sensor node.
