The deployment of Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) must be done with some kind of advanced techniques so that it can mitigate the energy constraints. An existing, clustered-based routing protocol known as Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) was studied, the outcome is an improved algorithm based on LEACH. The performance of these algorithms was studied through simulations using OMNeT++. In the original LEACH, the Cluster Heads selections were based on a distributed algorithm. For the modified algorithm, the improvement was done in the Cluster Head selection process. The selection process takes into account the residual energy of each node and used its probability outcome for the determination of the threshold value for next round. The results concluded that the performance of the modified algorithm is better than the original LEACH, the outcome will result in maximizing network lifetime.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
