EESA Algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks

Since there are many problems of traditional extended clustering algorithm in wireless sensor network like short extended time, over energy consumption, too many deviated position the of cluster head nodes and so on, this paper proposes the EESA algorithm. The algorithm makes many improvements on the way of dividing clusters, strategy of electing the cluster head and construction method of data relay path, the two aspects of inter-cluster energy balance and energy balance among the cluster are taken into account at the same time. Detailed simulation results are taken in this thesis to compare network lifetime, average residual energy, energy consumption standard deviation of cluster head node and changes of average remaining energy between the EESA algorithm and ACT algorithm, EECA algorithm and MR-LEACH algorithm; the simulation results show that: the proposed algorithm reduces the load of hot regional cluster head, balances the energy consumption of the entire network nodes and extends the networks lifetime of wireless sensor.
