Cluster Based Data Aggregation Scheme in Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consists of a network with huge quantity of sensors that are deployed to accomplish a particular task. These low cost sensors are proficient of aggregating and communicating the sensed information over the field. Evaluation of IoT and proliferation of sensors with other application results building a variety of gazettes. However, these nodes being powered by a battery are energy constrained. While operating, most of the vitality is spent during packet transmission. So an ardent care should be taken care of while developing the protocol. The protocols through which nodes communicate with each other is known as routing. Designing of appropriate routing protocol results in better lifetime of the protocol. This paper proposes a routing protocol based on cluster formation among same type of sensor nodes (SN) for gathering of data at intermediate nodes in the cluster and these intermediate nodes further transmits data to resource opulence sink.
