Due to the restricted hardware resources of the sensor nodes, modelling and designing energy efficient routing methods to increase the overall network lifetime have become one of the most significant strategies in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Cluster-based heterogeneous routing protocols, a popular part of routing technology, have proven effective in management of topology, energy consumption, data collection or fusion, reliability, or stability in a distributed sensor network. In this article, an energy efficient three-level heterogeneous clustering method (DEEC) based distributed energy efficient clustering protocol named TBSDEEC (Threshold balanced sampled DEEC) is proposed. Contrary to most other studies, this study considers the effect of the threshold balanced sampled in the energy consumption model. Our model is compared with the DEEC, EDEEC (Enhanced Distributed Energy Efficient Clustering Protocol), and EDDEEC (Enhanced Developed Distributed Energy Efficient Clustering Protocol) using MATLAB as two different scenarios based on quality metrics, including living nodes on the network, network efficiency, energy consumption, number of packets received by base station (BS), and average latency. After, our new method is compared with artificial bee colony optimization (ABCO) algorithm and energy harvesting WSN (EH-WSN) clustering method. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed model is more efficient than the other protocols and significantly increases the sensor network lifetime.

In wireless sensor networks, hundreds or thousands of sensor networks are deployed in a field to sense data (like temperature, light, pressure, sound etc.) and then they transmit it to sink nodes or base station via a radio transmitter. At one side where these networks have numerous applications, they suffer from a major disadvantage on the other side. These sensor nodes are power constrained and hence they have limited lifetime. Once deployed, these nodes cannot be recharged, therefore researchers are developing protocols to enhance network lifetime. Protocols had been modified one after the other so as to save energy during their every transmission. Clustering technique was used and it was found that it is more optimistic way to save energy. In this paper, we propose a new clustering protocol: Threshold Enhanced Developed and Distributed energy-Efficient Clustering Protocol (TEDDEEC) for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. In this technique, a modified value of threshold is presented on which a node will decide whether to become CH or not. Simulation results show that this protocol outperforms as compared to its conventional counterparts.
