In wireless sensor network data collection is always a big problem, collection should be power efficient, which increase the life of the sensor. The sensor nodes which are distant from the base station take more energy and die early. To improve life of network, the score based load balancing algorithm is proposed. The sensor nodes transfer the data to the cluster head using score based load balancing algorithm. The load of a node will balance using lowest score node among the sensor node and cluster head. Cluster head compress data from the cluster nodes and forward the compressed data towards sink node. The compression on a cluster head will reduce the number of transmissions.
