The energy resources available to nodes in wireless sensor networks are limited, so they
must be wisely used. Clustering is a useful technique for reducing energy consumption and …

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) comprise a large number of small sensor nodes scattered
across limited geographical areas. The nodes in such networks carry sources of limited and …

This paper proposes three techniques to improve the energy efficiency of clustering
protocols in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The first technique reduces the periodic …

Clustering is one of the fundamental approaches used to optimize energy consumption in
wireless sensor networks. Clustering protocols proposed in the literature can be classified …

Sensor networks comprise of sensor nodes with limited battery power that are deployed at
different geographical locations to monitor physical events. Information gathering is a typical …

Clustering is an effective technique used to reduce energy consumption and extend the
lifetime of wireless sensor network (WSN). The characteristic of energy heterogeneity of …

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), sensor nodes are usually deployed with limited
energy reserves in remote environments for a long period of time with less or no human …

We consider the challenge of organizing densely deployed sensor nodes into the form of
clusters, using the distribution of network residual energy (NRE), which is defined as the …

Wireless sensor network swears an exceptional fine‐grained interface between the virtual
and physical worlds. The clustering algorithm is a kind of key technique used to reduce …

The issue of energy constraint has always been a challenging task in the research field of
wireless sensor networks. Clustering is the most effective approach for enhancing the …
