Abstract: WSN is an application specific network. It depends upon application, resource availability. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) using wireless sensor networks has concentrate most attention recently. It is an area of research that can proactively assess the structural integrity of bridges, tunnels, turbines, buildings and nuclear reactors etc. using Wireless Sensor Network. Basically every node works on battery. Generally these batteries are non-rechargeable and due to diverse geographical localities of sensors it is not always possible to replace nodes always. So, it is important to check the energy consumption of node and try to reduce it. When we transmit it through a series of intermediate nodes there can be more than one path through which data can be transmitted. Among these different paths we have to choose most efficient path in terms of consumed energy, proper transfer of data from source to destination etc. Energy can be conserved at every layer of WSN. We focus on the network layer whose function is the routing and topology control. Here we have developed a novel energy efficient routing algorithm whose performance is better than the existing ones. The aim of the paper is to develop the multi parameters mathematical model to optimize the routing parameters particularly network lifetime w.r.t energy consumption considering network design model parameters for SHM of bridges, which affects the routing layer. Also it is to develop a novel energy efficient routing algorithm for improving the network lifetime without compromising the energy consumption.
