Description
Summary:Wireless sensor Networks are widely deployed for wide range of applications for gathering information about the desired application. However the limited battery power of the sensor nodes requires efficient gathering of information so the Network performance and lifetime is increased. LEACH [13] is one the famous cluster-based structure, which has been widely proposed in wireless sensor Networks. In this paper, we propose a clusterhead formation algorithm that increases the performance of the Network. Our protocol has the following characteristics. All nodes after the first round send energy level and distance information from the base station (BS) to the cluster-head. Cluster head send the energy level and distance information of each node to base station (BS).Base station selects the cluster-head dynamically on the basis of energy level and distance. To overcome these two parameters our algorithm will show better performance and increase the lifetime of the network.
