Abstract

This work presents a study on the energy consumption of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) while collecting the environmental information from the associated nodes. The lifespan of these nodes is very short because of the limited availability of energy which has given rise to the significant challenge in designing an energy efficient routing protocol. In this paper, a new Reconfigurable Cluster Head Selection (RCH) protocol has been presented which has an innovative concept – reconfiguration of fixed Cluster Heads (CHs). The status ‘reconfigurable’ means that the network reconfigures itself by selecting new CH from among the normal nodes. This process is done when the available CH is about to die due to energy constraints.The proposed protocol maintains stability and prolonged duration of communication by selection of new CH within the cluster for securing the communication to meet an outage. Monte Carlo simulations are carried out in MATLAB and results show that because of the new proposed RCH protocol, the system is more energy efficient as compared with already available LEACH protocol.
异构无线传感器的可重构簇头选择协议
本文研究了无线传感器网络(WSNs)在从相关节点收集环境信息时的能量消耗。由于能量可用性有限,这些节点的寿命非常短,这给设计节能路由协议带来了重大挑战。本文提出了一种新的可重构簇头选择(RCH)协议,该协议具有一个创新的概念——固定簇头(CHs)的可重构。状态“可重构”意味着网络通过从正常节点中选择新的CH来重新配置自身。这个过程是在可用的CH由于能量限制而即将死亡时完成的。该协议通过在集群内选择新的CH来确保通信在中断时的安全性,从而保持了通信的稳定性和延长了通信时间。在MATLAB中进行了蒙特卡罗仿真,结果表明,由于新提出的RCH协议,与现有的LEACH协议相比,系统更加节能。
