Maintaining Sensor Network is very cost-effective so sensors will be shared by multiple applications to gather various types of data. All the data generated in Sensor Network will not be equally important, some data may be important than other. Thus a differentiated data delivery is required in Sensor Networks for HP and LP data. To accomplish this task this system uses CAR and MCAR routing mechanisms whose main aim is to increase the delivery ratio of HP data and to increase the performance of the system in presence of congestion. So the scope of the system can be confined as the task of integration of the existing technology and proposed routing protocols to the maximum level possible so that it reduce the time and cost significantly and the system can be utilized and implied in the suitable way possible. System objective is to lessen the progressive performance failure in an overcrowded Sensor Networks using CAR and MCAR and increase the %K http://www.ijctee.org/files/VOLUME2ISSUE2/IJCTEE_0412_32.pdf %U http://www.ijctee.org/files/VOLUME2ISSUE2/IJCTEE_0412_32.pdf
