TLDR
This paper proposes a novel clustering schema EECS for wireless sensor networks, which better suits the periodical data gathering applications and elects cluster heads with more residual energy through local radio communication while achieving well cluster head distribution.Abstract:
Data gathering is a common but critical operation in many applications of wireless sensor networks. Innovative techniques that improve energy efficiency to prolong the network lifetime are highly required. Clustering is an effective topology control approach in wireless sensor networks, which can increase network scalability and lifetime. In this paper, we propose a novel clustering schema EECS for wireless sensor networks, which better suits the periodical data gathering applications. Our approach elects cluster heads with more residual energy through local radio communication while achieving well cluster head distribution; further more it introduces a novel method to balance the load among the cluster heads. Simulation results show that EECS outperforms LEACH significantly with prolonging the network lifetime over 35%.read more

PEGASIS: Power-efficient gathering in sensor information systems
TL;DR: PEGASIS (power-efficient gathering in sensor information systems), a near optimal chain-based protocol that is an improvement over LEACH, is proposed, where each node communicates only with a close neighbor and takes turns transmitting to the base station, thus reducing the amount of energy spent per round.
