A Novel Clustering protocol for Optimal Node Placement in Wireless Sensor Networks
Аннотация
Over the past years, there have been several issues related to WSN. In this research, we analyzed the most advanced aspects like important characteristics, research parameters, energy conversation, network lifetime, practical issues and various challenges with Clustered wireless sensor networks. We propose clustering-based routing protocol for Wireless sensor network (CBWSN) to reduce energy consumption and improve energy efficiency through clustering and routing algorithms. The basic idea is to periodically update the network topology and select the node with larger degree and high residual energy as the cluster head to be responsible for data aggregation and transmission. With the nodes moving, joining, and choosing the optimal clustering radius, the energy load of the whole network can be evenly distributed to each sensor node, which can significantly prolong the network lifetime. Extensive simulations show that CBWSN is more energy-efficient than the existing protocols.
