Abstract EN
The research work proposes a cluster head selection algorithm for a wireless sensor network.
A node can be a cluster head if it is connected to at least one unique neighbor node where the unique neighbor is the one that is not connected to any other node.
If there is no connected unique node then the CH is selected on the basis of residual energy and the number of neighbor nodes.
With the increase in number of clusters, the processing energy of the network increases; hence, this algorithm proposes minimum number of clusters which further leads to increased network lifetime.
The major novel contribution of the proposed work is an algorithm that ensures a completely connected network with minimum number of isolated nodes.
An isolated node will remain only if it is not within the transmission range of any other node.
With the maximum connectivity, the coverage of the network is automatically maximized.
The superiority of the proposed design is verified by simulation results done in MATLAB, where it clearly depicts that the total numbers of rounds before the network dies out are maximum compared to other existing protocols.
