Abstract:

In this paper, a centralized hierarchical-based routing protocol, that distributes energy load among sensor nodes based on their residual energy, is proposed. The performance of the proposed protocol is evaluated via intensive simulation. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol outperforms the well-known Base-Station Controlled Dynamic Clustering Protocol (BCDCP) in terms of network lifetime and energy savings.
