主　　题：WSN MAC routing energy efficient latency-reducing 

摘      要：This paper introduces a new protocol routing medium access control(RMAC)that integrates the routing and medium access control(MAC)layer *** can both reduce latency and save energy in the wireless sensor network(WSN)while most others propose protocols that sacrifice latency for *** make RMAC fit WSN better,we designed an easy and efficient routing protocol base station flooding(BSF)and then integrated it with a MAC protocol timing out MAC(TMAC)[1],while traditionally BSF and TMAC work separately at two *** call this two-layer protocol(TLP).We theoretically proved the advan-tages of RMAC over TLP and evaluated RMAC over *** simulation results show that RMAC spends half the latency of TLP,as well as consumes less energy than TLP.
