Abstract:A Large number of tiny sensors are equipped in a network termed as Wireless Sensor Network which can be an effective tool for gathering of data from environment. Data which is collected through sensors are forwarded to the Base Station and from there to the end User. In WSN, energy efficiency is the primary factor that requires consideration. Considering this fact, clustering is introduced in WSN as it provides effective data aggregation as well as scalability for large WSNs. Moreover, clustering is also helpf… Show more
“…But under the conditions of network heterogeneity this protocol will not be efficient and gives poor performance. Secondly, the clustering algorithms applied in heterogeneous networks are like the Stable Election Protocol (SEP) [5], Distributed Energy Efficient Clustering (DEEC) [7] and variants of DEEC [8].…”

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.
