In the WSN environment, the sensor node is selected as the cluster header and consumes a lot of energy. Therefore, we proposed a method to automatically select a cluster algorithm using the sensor field environment that can improve the reliability of the whole network by applying an energy efficient clustering algorithm based on already deployed sensor field. Experimental results show that FDN is extended about 3 times by using the proposed algorithm. In addition, the network energy is extended by up to 30% compared to the conventional method, thereby improving the reliability of the sensor network.
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.
