Abstract:Wireless sensor networks deploy sensor nodes to different areas for data collection. The small size of these sensor nodes allows limited energy storage capacity, and most applications of the networks do not support recharging the batteries once their energy is depleted. Research on energy efficiency in wireless sensor networks is thus an active area that seeks to minimize energy consumption so that the sensor nodes can live longer. Clustering, one of the energy consumption optimization techniques, is employed … Show more
