Abstract

In Wireless Sensor Network, clustering scheme is used to prolong the lifetime of WSN by efficient usage of energy of sensor. In the distributed clustering protocol just like LEACH, every sensor in a network plays a cluster head role once during each epoch. So the FND is prolonged. But, even though every sensor plays a head role, the energy consumed by each sensor is different because the energy consumed increases according to the distance to the Base Station by the way of multiple increase. In this paper, we propose a mechanism to select a head depending on the distance to Base Station, which extends the timing of FND occurrence by 68% compared to the LEACH and makes network stable.
