In Wireless Sensor Networks, efficient energy management is of great importance. In this paper, we propose a novel routing protocol, Threshold Sensitive Density Controlled Divide and Rule (TSDDR) to prolong network lifetime and stability period. To achieve these targets, we utilize static clustering with threshold aware transmissions. Simulations are done in MATLAB and the results show that our protocol has 60% longer stability period than LEACH [1] and 36% longer stability period than DDR [2]. We also implemented the Uniform Random Model (URM) to find Packet Drop to make our scheme more practical.
