摘要：Routing protocol in wireless sensor network (WSN) has always been a frequently adopted topic of research in WSN owing to many unsolved issues in it. This paper discusses about the multicast routing protocols in WSN and briefs up different forms of standard research contribution as well as significant recent research techniques toward leveraging the performance of multicast routing. The paper then discusses the beneficial factor and limiting factor in existing multicast techniques and highlights the research gap in this. In order to overcome the research gap, a novel architecture to address the optimization as a cost minimization problem associated with multicast routing in WSN is proposed. This paper contributes to show a present scenario of multicast routing performance in WSN and thereby assists the readers about the possible direction of future with clear visualization of system architecture.
