Abstract
To configure a wireless sensor network, a sink node receives from nodes first reports, a first report from a node indicating quality of service requirement of the node and battery information of the node, and second reports, a second report from a node indicating at least a signal strength of one signal received from another node. The information in the first reports and in the second reports are used for determining paths from the nodes to the sink node, wherein a path of a node is either a direct link from the node to the sink node or the path comprises at least one node acting as a cluster head between the node and the sink node.
