AB - Wireless sensor networks (WSNs), many constraints of nodes. A variety of classical routing algorithms have been developed for data gathering in wireless sensor networks. Sensor extract useful information from environment, this information has to be routed through several intermediate nodes to reach the destination. Information can effectively disseminate to the destination is one of the most important tasks in sensor networks. This paper shows the analysis results of a simulation using ns-2.33 simulator for two classical routing algorithms namely: Flooding and Omniscient. Simulating results shows that the omniscient multicast protocol has good performances in terms of using additional routing metrics remaining energy, routing load and dropped packets, comparison to flooding routing protocol in wireless sensor network.
