How to reduce the number of transmissions or prolong the lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has become a research focus. Based on the spatial correlation of sensor readings, in this paper, we propose a spatial compression scheme for improving the lifetime of wireless sensor network to address this issue. This scheme can prolong the lifetime of network significantly by combing LEACH protocol and spatial compression. Meanwhile, the reconstruction precision of original data is high for exploring the spatial correlation of sensor readings fully. Moreover, based on the layered network architecture, the proposed scheme can improve the network loading by selecting the cluster head randomly. Finally, the simulation results confirm that the lifetime of the proposed scheme is longer than other related schemes, and the original data can be reconstructed with high precision.
