Minimization of Consumption of Energy using Clustering and Fault Tolerance using Recovery Node in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

Mobile Wireless Sensor Network (MWSN) is a latest emerging technology during last decades, the researchers are doing efforts to find a low cost and low power way out for mobile wireless sensor network. Many clustering based algorithms are available in mobile wireless sensor networks. The proposed study focuses on application of a distributed fault-tolerant clustering algorithm using LEACH in mobile wireless sensor networks. The fault has been removed by using back up cluster or by setting the root information as a prefix. The simulated results shows that LEACH routing protocol is better than HEED routing protocol in terms of energy consumption of mobile sensor nodes and extensively improve the network lifetime.
