Abstract

In this paper, popular clustering protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are investigated. There are many issues and challenges that effect network lifetime. One of these critical issues is high power consumption which reduces network lifetime. The aim of this paper is to propose Energy-Distance Aware Clustering (E-DACS) approach that considers sensor energy level and distance during cluster heads selection to increase the throughput. In this method, cluster head selected among other nodes in the cluster by optimal criteria that calculate the distance to each node, distance to base station, and residual energy. Performance, network efficiency and maximizing network lifetime are measured by simulation, analysis and comparison with other well-known mechanisms.
