A Review on Distributed Topology Control Techniques for Energy Efficient Cluster based Protocols for WSN

Abstract

In current environment there are various application where WSN is used. These area may be critical fields as well. Because WSN is very easy to set and very cost efficient network. Each node in the sensor network has specific number of nodes. Each node can transmit and receive the signal. Because each node has battery as energy source, so there is a high chances of energy depletion early. So various researches has been done in current time to have efficient protocols which can utilize energy is time efficient manner. This will protect the node from being dead and also enhance the life time of the node. Various cluster based protocols are there which can sib divide the network area into smaller parts and each part can have specific number of sensor nodes deployed randomly. Based on residual energy one node will be selected as cluster head. All sensor node will collect the data and sends that data to the cluster head. And then cluster head to the base station.
