Shaveta Gupta, Vinay Bhatia · International Journal of Scientific Engineering and Research · 2015
Nowadays energy efficiency is a major issue for distributed wireless sensor networks (WSNs) deployed in varied environments.The energy efficient cluster-based protocols play a vital role for energy saving in hierarchical wireless sensor networks.In modelling, probability plays its important role.The probability definition is different for different approaches.The present paper is an approach to incorporate a model in the form of Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) instead of an algorithm or a formula.The present approach seems to improve the performance when compared to existing algorithms with their results.Computer simulations are carried out to demonstrate and compare the performance of the proposed algorithms.
