摘要:Power consumption is an important metric tool in the context of the wireless sensor networks(WSNs). In this paper, we described a new Energy-Degree (EDD) Clustering Algorithm for theWSNs. A node with higher residual energy and higher degree is more likely elected as aclusterhead (CH). The intercluster and intracluster communications are realized on one hop.The principal goal of our algorithm is to optimize the energy power and energy load among allnodes. By comparing EDD clustering algorithm with LEACH algorithm, simulation resultshave showen its effectiveness in saving energy.
