Title: Energy Efficient Routing Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract: The nodes have limited available power in wireless sensor networks. In view of the trait, this paper analyzes leach protocols, and an energy-efficient routing algorithm is proposed and evaluated in which the cluster formation is controlled by the residual energy and the number of cluster members. In addition, the cluster heads take hierarchical routing scheme to communicate with the base station. Simulations show that the new algorithm provides longer lifetime than leach protocols.
