Abstract-- This work explores grid-based coordinated routing
in wireless sensor networks and compares the energy available
in the network over time for different grid sizes. A test area is
divided into square-shaped grids of certain length. Fully charged
battery powered nodes are randomly placed in the area with a
fixed source and sink nodes. One node per grid is elected as
the coordinator which does the actual routing. The source node
starts flooding the network with every coordinator joining in the
