A Modified Clustering Algorithm in WSN

Abstract

Nowadays many applications use Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) as their fulfill the purpose of collection of data from a particular phenomenon. Their data centric behavior as well as harsh restrictions on energy makes WSN different from many other networks known. During this work the energy management problem of WSN is studied, by using our proposed modified algorithm. It is a clustering algorithm, where nodes are organized in clusters and send their data to a shift selected cluster head. It will provide improvement on energy consumption in terms of member nodes, by making cluster heads static. LEACH already has a good energy saving strategy but our modification will provide an easier approach towards efficiency.
