We propose a novel routing framework called PWave that supports multi-source multi-sink anycast routing for wireless sensor networks. A distributed and scalable potential field estimation algorithm and a probabilistic forwarding scheme are proposed to ensure low overhead and high resilience to network dynamics. Key properties of this framework are proved through theoretical analysis and verified through simulations.Using network lifetime maximization problem as one example, we illustrated the
more » ... wer of this framework by showing a 2.7 to 8 times lifetime extension over Directed Diffusion and up to 5 times lifetime extension over the energy-aware multipath routing.
