An Improved Cluster Head Selection Algorithm for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (MWSN) consists of nodes that are small sized and of mobile nature. Since nodes are mobile the energy drains out is continuous offering short duration networks and hence energy efficiency and network life time are still the major hurdles for efficient communication network. Literature indicates that Clustering is the most popular solution for energy efficient routing in MWSN. In this paper a cluster head selection algorithm is proposed. The cluster head is primarily selected on basis of the residual energy of the node during the communication. Node with highest remaining energy will be elected as new cluster head. The unique contribution of this research work is a process when the existing cluster head moves out of the cluster range and cluster remains unattended. The results obtained are reflecting a significant improvement in the life time of the network and it was further discovered that the ratio of unattended clusters has reduced potentially.
