Abstract

Wireless sensor networks attracted wide attention among researchers in terms of different aspects. The main challenge in such networks is energy consumption. One of the most popular solutions to this challenge is cluster routing method through which the network is divided into several clusters, and there are a number of cluster heads which normal nodes send data to them; So selection of cluster head is very important. To aim a better network coverage in addition to lowering energy consumption we divided the network into several regions and created clusters within those regions. In addition, we focused on selecting the most suitable node as cluster head through dynamic clustering and including criteria such as node remaining energy, total network energy and node spacing.
