TEDDEEC: Threshold enhanced developed distributed energy-efficient clustering for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprise of vast number of arbitrarily conveyed energy required sensor nodes. Sensor nodes have capacity to sense and send detected information to Base Station (BS). Detecting and in addition transmitting information towards BS require more energy. In WSNs, sparing energy and developing network lifetime are awesome difficulties. Clustering is a key method used to enhance energy utilization in WSNs. Among two types of network; Homogeneous and Heterogeneous, the later has demonstrated to be significantly more essential in upgrading the network lifetime and making the network a great deal more energy adjusted with fitting probabilistic cluster head choice. In this paper, a novel clustering based routing protocol called Threshold Enhanced Developed Distributed Energy Efficient Clustering scheme (TEDDEEC) for heterogeneous WSNs is proposed. This method depends on more efficient selection of Cluster Heads (CH) for the rounds. Simulation is carried out for different proportion of normal and advanced nodes. Simulation results demonstrate that this proposed scheme accomplishes longer lifetime, stability period and more effective messages to BS than Enhanced Developed Distributed Energy Efficient Clustering scheme (EDDEEC) in heterogeneous situations.
