Improved LEACH: A modified LEACH for Wireless Sensor Network
Krishnakumar Amirthalingam, Anuratha · 2016
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are good field for research which can be applied almost in any area and in any circumstances. The traditional LEACH protocol is considered for the research and in this work the Improved LEACH is introduced as an energy efficient Cluster Head (CH) selection considering the energy and distance as parameters. The probability function is modified with the energy and distance metrics to choose energy efficient CH for data transmission. The simulation result clearly gives that the CH elected in Improved LEACH is prominent better scheme than the LEACH protocol. The sum of alive nodes is also quite improved and deliver a complete the clustering mechanism in a rapid manner when compare to the previous clustering processes in WSN.
