Abstract

WSN consists of hundreds or even thousands of nodes, which increases the reliability of the data but at the same time it also increases the redundancy of the collected data. So, the role of cluster head is important to reduce the redundancy generated in a sensor network, since early die out of cluster head may result in network breakdown or lifetime reduction of a WSN. This paper proposes modified LEACH algorithm in heterogeneous network named as HETEROLEACH. It increases the lifetime of a WSN by properly choosing a cluster head in a cluster, based on energy and predefined range. This reduces the energy consumption of nodes especially cluster heads in such a manner that redundancy is reduced and no overload takes place at CH.
