Leach Protocol with AODV based Data Transmission in Wireless Sensor Networks and IoT Applications

Abstract

WSNs, or wireless sensor networks, may be used in many different contexts. The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most cutting-edge areas of potential use, since it paves the way for the networked linking of hitherto unrelated physical things and systems. When comparing WSNs to mobile ad hoc networks, however, limiting battery capacity is the biggest issue. As a result, there has been much study devoted to finding ways to cut down on the power that WSNs use. One of the many methods to reduce the WSNs’ energy consumption is the development of a hierarchy clustering algorithm. This research improves upon prior work by establishing a threshold limit for cluster head selection while concurrently adjusting the power level across the nodes in the current low adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) clustering procedure. The proposed approach LEACH protocol improves upon the current LEACH protocol by increasing throughput by 67% and increasing the number of still-alive nodes to 1750 rounds, both of which may be leveraged to increase the WSN’s lifespan. The suggested method outperforms previous energy-efficient protocols in terms of stable period and network longevity over a wide range of parameters including coverage area, energy budget, and node density.
