In this thesis, an investigation of the performance of multipath routing in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is performed. The communication in the network under study is to take place from individual nodes to the sink node. The investigation involved multipath finding methods in WSN. Also, it involves investigating the weight assignment, traffic splitting and route selection methods for the different paths discovered by each node in the WSN. Also, a comparison between Hybrid Routing Protocol, Source Routing Protocol and Diffusion Routing Protocol is performed. A simple traffic routing algorithm for each routing protocol has been developed to conceptualize how the network traffic is routed on a set of active paths. The investigation of the Hybrid, Source and Diffusion Routing Protocol involved using multiple paths simultaneously to transmit messages that belong to the same flow by using a weight assigned to each path and transmit each message as a whole. Finally, the power consumption and the QoS in terms of message delays for a WSN were investigated and compared between different protocols.
