Leach Protocol

Wireless sensor network routing protocol is to prolong the survival time of wireless sensor networks by using the sensor nodes energy efficiently. Traditional LEACH protocol is random in the election of the cluster head, if a less energy node is first elected as a cluster head node, then the node might die soon, it will greatly reducing the lifetime of the network. In order to collect data more efficiently and prolong the network life cycle,we need better clustering protocol. Aim at the traditional LEACH protocol have some weakness,this paper improve the protocol based on traditional LEACH protocol, two influence factors which the residual energy and the number of elected cluster head of the nodes had been introduced to make the clustering more ideal. Simulation results show that compared to the traditional Leach algorithm ,the improved LEACH protocol can prolong the network life cycle more effective and reduce the energy consumption of the whole network.

The data transfer of wireless sensor network (WSN) can not be separated with routing protocol, Energy efficiency is one of the most important factors in wireless sensor networks. In this paper based on the uneven distribution of the LEACH cluster head and the different lengths and base station communications, we present a improved LEACH algorithm which refers to remaining energy and optimal cluster heads. Computer simulation using NS2 reveals that the proposed protocol reduces the energy consumption compared with the existing LEACH protocol.

Leach Protocol

Wireless sensor networks have recently gained a lot of attention from the scientific community due to their very wide spectrum of applications. In such networks, the sensor nodes have limited resources. These constraints impose many challenges to the design of related protocols. Especially, routing protocols should be energy-efficient for the prolonged network lifetime. The LEACH protocol is the most popular energy-efficient hierarchical clustering protocol for WSNs that was proposed for reducing power consumption. However, LEACH suffers from several drawbacks such as the non uniform distribution of Cluster Head nodes, the possibility of choosing a low energy node as Cluster Head, etc. In this paper, an attempt is made to overcome this shortcoming by introducing a new hierarchical clustering protocol, called SCHP (Static Cluster-based Hierarchical Protocol). The SCHP protocol is based on a static cluster creation and an optimal cluster head selection. Simulation results show that the proposal guarantees better performance than the LEACH Protocol that is considered as the baseline in the literature. We used many metrics, as packet loss rate, end-to-end delay, and energy consumption to evaluate the efficiency of our proposal. We show also that the SCHP protocol can improve the network lifetime.

Leach Protocol

In order to prolong the lifetime of wireless sensor networks, improvement of cluster-head selection mechanism based on LEACH protocol is proposed. To make the energy distribution more uniform, we consider the relationship of the density of nodes, residual energy of nodes and distance between nodes and Sink node. It eliminates the defect of energy consumption imbalance in the network caused by random position of cluster-heads and the problem of premature death of nodes caused by low energy nodes becoming cluster-heads. Simulation results show that compared with LEACH algorithm, the improved algorithm extend the network lifetime.
