Abstract

Homogeneous algorithms assume that the entire sensor node equipped with equal amount of energy. In this paper, a network model has been proposed which incorporate heterogeneity in term of their energy. The term heterogeneity means nodes equipped with dissimilar amount of energy. This model contains three tier node heterogeneity namely tier-1, tier-2, and tier-3 heterogeneity. We assume that nodes are equipped in three dimensions, not mobile, and randomly distributed. It performance is compared with 3D-ALBP, called 3D-hetALBP. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate that our proposed heterogeneous algorithm is more effective in prolonging the network lifetime compared with 3D-ALBP.
