An Efficient Cluster-Based Power Saving Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks
Kasa Suguna
Abstract: In this article, efficient power saving scheme and corresponding algorithm must be developed and designed in order to provide reasonable energy consumption and to improve the network lifetime for wireless sensor network systems. The cluster-based technique is one of the approaches to reduce energy consumption in wireless sensor networks. In this article, we propose a saving energy clustering algorithm to provide efficient energy consumption in such networks. The main idea of this article is to reduce data transmission distance of sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks by using the uniform cluster concepts. In order to make an ideal distribution for sensor node clusters, we calculate the average distance between the sensor nodes and take into account the residual energy for selecting the appropriate cluster head nodes. The lifetime of wireless sensor networks is extended by using the uniform cluster location and balancing the network loading among the clusters. Simulation results indicate the superior performance of our proposed algorithm to strike the appropriate performance in the energy consumption and network lifetime for the wireless sensor networks.
