The Wireless Sensor Network technology has been used widely; however the limited energy resource is one of the bottlenecks for its application. To enhance the robustness and accuracy of the information which is obtained by the entire network, certain redundancy exists in the data collected from the sensor node and thus data fusion processing is needed to reduce the redundant information. Firstl...

Sensor networks have wide range of applications...

In wireless sensor networks (WSN), sensor nodes just can use battery as their power resource and the power is quite limited. So, energy efficiency research is the key issue in design reasonable wireless sensor network routing protocols. In the paper, a revised cluster election method named LEACH-PSOv has been proposed to strengthen the hierarchical routing protocol low energy adaptive clusterin...

A clustering algorithm is a key technique used to increase the scalability and lifetime of the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In this paper, we propose and evaluate a distributed energy-efficient clustering algorithm for heterogeneous WSNs, which is called Position-Based Clustering (PBC). This protocol is an improvement of LEACH-E. In PBC, the cluster-heads are elected by using probabilities ...

The traditional Low Energy Adaptive Cluster Hierarchy (LEACH) routing protocol is a clustering-based protocol. The uneven selection of cluster heads results in premature death of cluster heads and premature blind nodes inside the clusters, thus reducing the overall lifetime of the network. With a full consideration of information on energy and distance distribution of neighboring nodes inside t...

This paper introduces an energy efficient clustering algorithm for sensor network based on the leach protocol. The proposed algorithm adds features to leach and aims to reduce power consumption of the network resources in each round of data gathering and communicating. The proposed algorithm is a cluster_ based routing algorithm that exploits the redundancy properties of the sensor networks in ...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of various homogeneous or heterogeneous sensor nodes deployed over an area. The most challenging issue in wireless sensor network research is its routing protocols as the sensors have limited power so protocols should be like it consumes less energy during active mode. To increase lifetime of a sensor network is to design protocols in such a way that it m...
