Abstract

One of the most important considerations in designing sensor nodes in a wireless sensor networks is to extend the network lifetime by minimizing an energy consumption with limited resources. In this paper, we propose an Energy-Efficient Cluster Head Election (EECHE) algorithm in sensor networks The proposed algorithm divides cluster area into two perpendicular diameters, and then elects cluster head by the density of member nodes and the distance from cluster head. Through the simulation experiments, we showed that our algorithm has improves the performance of cluster head election and provides more energy-efficient.

This research has been supported by a grant from the Korea Electronics Technology Institute 2008.
