Improvement of LEACH Routing Algorithm Based on Use of Balanced Energy in Wireless Sensor Networks

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 6838))

Abstract

Based on the analysis of LEACH routing algorithm, this paper proposes a novel clustering algorithm(I-LEACH) which selects cluster heads according to the node’s residual energy and distance with other cluster heads. In addition, the clusters send data to the base station by means of combination of single hop and multi-hop manner for saving cluster heads’ energy. Simulation results show that compared with LEACH and P-LEACH, the improved algorithm can balance energy consumption among nodes, reduce the energy consumption and prolong the lifetime of the networks.
