Abstract

In the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) environment, a sensor node spends most of its energy for relaying data packets to multiple sinks simultaneously. So, it is important to shorten the distance that a packet has to travel to reach the sinks. Cluster formation is the most common approach to achieve this by assigning a Cluster Header (CH) closed to member nodes to collect the sensed data. In this paper, we derive a mathematical model to partition the network into some clusters with a proper number of member nodes in order to balance the traffic load among the constituted nodes. Then CH is elected to obtain the minimum internal routing cost in data acquisition among the member nodes in their respective cluster. The elected CH routes the gathered data to sink(s) using the constituted CHs as intermediate nodes contained in the minimum routing cost path. The mechanism of reducing routing cost in every factor of WSNs can be the promising approach in the aspect of network lifetime.
