Scalability Analysis in Wireless Sensor Network with LEACH Routing Protocol

Wireless sensor network will enable the reliable monitoring of a variety of environments for several application like in military, forest, etc. This paper focus on the communication routing protocol which has impact on network lifetime and scalability. The sensor network lifetime is a function of energy. LEACH (Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) as routing protocol of sensor network for energy conservation. Simulation shows the performance on node density and cluster-head percentage of LEACH protocol. Scalability and cluster variation improve the network lifetime by analyzing to the respect of alive node ,simulation time, energy and data.
