An Energy-based Clustering Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Energy efficient routing is one of the key issues to prolong lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The number of cluster and the distribution of cluster heads (CHs) have a major impact on the network performance. Energy-based clustering algorithm can greatly improve energy efficiency of WSNs because it adopts a multi-hop communication in each cluster. Besides, the neighborhood of the sink node (SN) will perform direct transmission to relieve the workload of CHs. Simulation results show that our algorithm can largely reduce the total energy consumption and prolong the network lifetime compared to other algorithm like LEACH.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of sensor nodes with limited energy. Energy efficiency is an important issue in WSNs as the sensor nodes are deployed in rugged and non-care areas and consume a lot of energy to send data to the central station or sink if they want to communicate directly with the sink. Recently, the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol is employed as a low-power, low-cost, and low rat...
