Abstract

Energy efficiency is a main concern for clustering–routing protocols in wireless sensor networks. A recent work has proposed a clustering technique for WSNs in which sink moves along a circular path, but it suffers from the hot-spot problem. This paper suggests how to solve this issue. To achieve uniform distribution of energy a ping-pong strategy is adopted. Cluster heads are elected according to a potential which is a combination of the proportional residual energy of a node with respect to its neighbours and its distance from the path of sink. Cluster formation is done based on a cost factor. The proposed method achieves a longer lifetime due to energy saving as demonstrated in simulation experiments.
