摘要:WSN consisting of a large number of small sensors with low-power transceivers can be an effective tool for gathering data in a variety of environments. As sensor nodes are deployed in sensing field, they can help people to monitor and aggregate data. Researchers also try to find more efficient ways of utilizing limited energy of sensor node in order to give longer life time of WSNs. Network lifetime, scalability, and load balancing are important requirements for many data gathering sensor netw ork applications. Therefore, many protocols are introduced for better performance. The efficient node-energy utilization is one of importa nt performance factors in wireless sensor networks because sensor nodes operate with limited battery pow er. In this paper, we proposed a cluster based routing algorithm to extend the lifetime of the networks and to maintain a balanced energy consumption of nodes
