A Cluster Based Routing Algorithm Minimizing Energy Consumption in WSN

Wireless sensor networks are continually being developed and constitute a new emerging technology that extends to many applications, they represent a very interesting field in the Internet of objects (IoT) and in information and communication technologies based on the manipulation of information through sensor nodes with limited characteristics (low storage capacity, autonomous source of energy, limited power), however, sensor nodes face the problem of energy constraints in terms of limited battery lifetime that has become the major issue in these networks and which represents a challenge to their design and management In these networks generally called WSN, Clustering routing represents a critical task to ensure energy efficiency and to overcome the constraints of congestion, collision and packet loss through several techniques of cluster formation and CH elections that have been proposed in literature. In this paper, we survey the principal clustering routing protocols in the literature, we describe their main characteristics and features, we propose a new cluster-based algorithm and we present its efficiency when comparing to some existing energy efficient clustering routing protocols using different simulation parameters.
