Ring routing clustering based energy efficient protocol for wireless sensor networks

摘要

Energy efficiency is the important factor being noticed caused by reduced battery capacity of the sensor in sensor networks. In existing system there are various issues such as hotspot problem, overheads that cause battery to drain easily. In this paper ring routing with multiple mobile sinks is proposed to reduce the overheads to make it more efficient, and the method is that it forms ring structure with ring nodes by using clustering algorithm. Ring structure is constructed according to the determined radius, nodes near to the ring form the ring structure and the sink position is updated and the location of the sink node is shared between all the ring candidates then the data dissemination takes place. The proposed system makes improvement in network lifetime and reduces delay and focuses mainly on the energy efficiency.
