Comparison of Energy Efficient Routing Protocols in Wireless Networks

Abstract

Wireless sensor network has extraordinary parameters along with its several appliances that have attracted awareness amongvarious investigators. For attaining reduction in energy dissipation as well as affording highly precise coverage in network region, the network was divided into several regions and clusters were formed inside every area. The quantity of residual energy and the distance from the centre of each node were estimated by the base station (containing the location and residual energy of each node for all living nodes in each region) for the purpose of choosing the cluster head (CH) in each round. Due to the lack of energy restrictions, the base station calculates the CH and is also in charge of telling the network about it, which lowers the load consumption and workload of network nodes. This protocol’s information transfer stages resemble those of the LEACH protocol. To better evaluate the results, the proposed method was implemented with LEACH protocols using MATLAB software based on packet delivery ratio and energy efficient. The results showed that better performance in network lifetime, death time of initial node and last node.
