Sandeep Chauhan, Manisha J. Nene · 2022
The ad-hoc deployments of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) have emerged as major technology which can enhance operational capability of critical surveillance operations at hostile as well as places where accessibility of human intervention is restricted however the main concern for their utilization in these areas is power consumption by WSNs model. To improve the power utilization many protocols are introduced such as Low Efficiency Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH), Power efficient gathering in Sensor information System (PEGASIS), Threshold Sensitive energy Efficient Sensor (TEEN) etc. LEACH introduced the concept of clustering which was a part of Hierarchal protocols and works on Cluster Head concept. These protocols are generally classified in three parts flat, direct and hierarchal. Among all the other protocols LEACH and PEGASIS has shown improved results as compared to other. PEGASIS works on chain-based flow of information and works on leader head (LH), LH is chosen determining the closest distance of a Node from Sink station. PEGASIS gives a better efficiency in terms of transmission as compared to LEACH. This paper aims to compare two protocols PEGASIS and LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) in a Dynamic WSN network with the help of algorithm. The result will help in building a better energy efficient protocol for WSN model. These protocols can be clubbed with other route optimizing techniques such as Ant Colony optimizer, Ant Bee Colony and Grey Wolf optimizer to improve their efficiency of the model therefore increasing the effectiveness of the model. Simulation is done in MATLAB.
