摘要：Sensors are the devices which are used to measure the temperature of their surroundings and inform it to the base station through central heads which forms large scale networks, have become more in number. These sensors can act individually by using small hardware devices and it can be embedded into the devices like mobile phones, laptops, iPods, or in combination of these in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) more battery power is needed for the measurement of temperature. Depending on the rate of battery power consumption, more research works are being focused on the influence of data processing and communication network as these sensors are tiny and they cannot withhold larger batteries. The problem arises when the sensors are treated as either tiny stand alone devices or particularly used when it is embedded with robust devices. It is necessary to make research work on embedded devices. Even though the literature shows the effectiveness of energy consumption by sensors, studies on the embedded devices robustness are seen rarely. It is being pointed out by architectural design of sensor networks which is different according to their applications and constraints. In order to address these issues, this paper try to arrive at certain coefficients called as factors that are empirically determined by involving series of experiments in the NS 2.0 environment. High, Medium, Low are the three scales of robustness which are suggested for the factor and also the three scales are immense to be used in the deployment of sensors in manets. Robustness on the consumption of energy of the sensor embedded devices in networks is indicated by the factors considered. The experimental work is delimited in its scope with energy consumption due to the computing process. The work is delimited to comparative studies on hierarchal and flat algorithms. Concluding remarks have been drawn out of these experimental studies.
