A Distributed Cluster-Based Algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks
Xiaomin Wang, Chao Song · 2009
In this paper, we propose a distributed cluster-based (DCB) algorithm for a long-lived sensor network. DCB achieves good performance in terms of network lifetime by using a efficient energy saving mechanism, which can banlance the energy load to the proper nodes. Simulation results show that DCB outperformances HEED in terms of networks lifetime.
