For severe energy constraint problem of wireless sensor networks, a non-uniform energy efficient clustering routing protocol (EUCRP) is proposed based on the analysis of the existing clustering routing protocol the characteristics and shortcomings. In EUCRP, we use a limiting cluster size optimization formation algorithm to produce clusters in descending order of the size of the cluster. Improved multi-hop inter-cluster data forwarding, saving energy cluster head and energy consumption of inter-cluster is balanced. Propose using “watering pot path” in the last hop to effectively solve the “hot zone” problem caused by uneven load energy. Simulation results show that the protocol can effectively reduce network energy consumption and prolong the network lifetime.

Since wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are powered by energy-constrained batteries, many energy-efficient routing protocols have been proposed to extend the network lifetime. However, most of the protocols do not well balance the energy consumption of the WSNs. The hotspot problem caused by unbalanced energy consumption in the WSNs reduces the network lifetime. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization)-based uneven dynamic clustering multi-hop routing protocol (PUDCRP). In the PUDCRP protocol, the distribution of the clusters will change dynamically when some nodes fail. The PSO algorithm is used to determine the area where the candidate CH (cluster head) nodes are located. The adaptive clustering method based on node distribution makes the cluster distribution more reasonable, which balances the energy consumption of the network more effectively. In order to improve the energy efficiency of multi-hop transmission between the BS (Base Station) and CH nodes, we also propose a connecting line aided route construction method to determine the most appropriate next hop. Compared with UCCGRA, multi-hop EEBCDA, EEMRP, CAMP, PSO-ECHS and PSO-SD, PUDCRP prolongs the network lifetime by between 7.36% and 74.21%. The protocol significantly balances the energy consumption of the network and has better scalability for various sizes of network.

Balancing energy consumption using the clustering routing algorithms is one of the most practical solutions for prolonging the lifetime of resource-limited wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, existing protocols cannot adequately minimize and balance the total network energy dissipation due to the additional tasks of data acquisition and transmission of cluster heads. In this paper, a cluster-head rotating election routing protocol is proposed to alleviate the problem. We discovered that the regular hierarchical clustering method and the scheme of cluster-head election area division had positive effects on reducing the energy consumption of cluster head election and intracluster communication. The election criterion composed of location and residual energy factor was proved to lower the probability of premature death of cluster heads. The chain multihop path of intercluster communication was performed to save the energy of data aggregation to the base station. The simulation results showed that the network lifetime can be efficiently extended by regulating the adjustment parameters of the protocol. Compared with LEACH, I-LEACH, EEUC, and DDEEC, the algorithm demonstrated significant performance advantages by using the number of active nodes and residual energy of nodes as the evaluation indicators. On the basis of these results, the proposed routing protocols can be utilized to increase the capability of WSNs against energy constraints.

The usage of wireless sensor devices in many applications, such as in the Internet of Things and monitoring in dangerous geographical spaces, has increased in recent years. However, sensor nodes have limited power, and battery replacement is not viable in most cases. Thus, energy savings in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is the primary concern in the design of efficient communication protocols. Therefore, a novel energy-efficient clustering routing protocol for WSNs based on Yellow Saddle Goatfish Algorithm (YSGA) is proposed. The protocol is intended to intensify the network lifetime by reducing energy consumption. The network considers a base station and a set of cluster heads in its cluster structure. The number of cluster heads and the selection of optimal cluster heads is determined by the YSGA algorithm, while sensor nodes are assigned to its nearest cluster head. The cluster structure of the network is reconfigured by YSGA to ensure an optimal distribution of cluster heads and reduce the transmission distance. Experiments show competitive results and demonstrate that the proposed routing protocol minimizes the energy consumption, improves the lifetime, and prolongs the stability period of the network in comparison with the stated of the art clustering routing protocols.

In the last few years, there are many applications for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). One of the main drawbacks of these networks is the limited battery power of sensor nodes. There are many cases to reduce energy consumption in WSNs. One of them is clustering. Sensor nodes partitioned into the clusters so that one is chosen as Cluster Head (CH). Clustering and selection of the proper node as CH is very significant in reducing energy consumption and increasing network lifetime. In this paper, we have surveyed a multi agent clustering algorithms and compared on various parameters like cluster size, cluster count, clusters equality, parameters used in CHs selection, algorithm complexity, types of algorithm used in clustering, nodes location awareness, inter-cluster and intra-cluster topologies, nodes homogeneity and MAC layer communications.

Considering the shortage of LEACH protocol, a novel dynamic multi-hop routing protocol named Balance Energy-efficient and Real-time with Reliable communication protocol based on Connected Dominant Set (BERR-CDS) is proposed in this paper. BERR-CDS protocol fully takes account of the energy consumption of an individual node and entire network, a rational transmission path from source node to sink node is searched, aiming at the network topology changes which are caused by the death of cluster head, the invalidation of cluster member nodes and new nodes joining, BERR-CDS designs the corresponding valid mechanism to respond, and it can rapidly adapt to the topology change of network. Simulation results show that BERR-CDS protocol has better performances in term of energy consumption, network lifetime and reliability, it is an ideal routing protocol in wireless sensor networks.

Wireless sensor networks have drawn tremendous attentions from all fields because of their wide application. Maximizing network lifetime is one of the main problems in wireless sensor networks. This article proposes an energy-efficient routing protocol which adopts unequal clustering technology to solve the hot spots problem and proposes double cluster head strategy to reduce the energy consumption of head nodes in the clusters. In addition, to balance the energy consumption between cluster heads and cluster members, a hybrid cluster head rotation strategy based on time-driven and energy-driven is proposed, which can make the timing of rotation more reasonable and the energy consumption more efficient. Finally, we compare the proposed protocol with LEACH, DEBUC, and UCNPD by simulation experiments. The simulation results prove that our proposed protocol can effectively improve the performance in terms of network lifetime, energy consumption, energy balance, stability, and throughput.

Due to the limited energy and the non-equivalence of wireless sensor network nodes, it is imperative to reduce and rationally use the energy consumption of the nodes to prolong the network lifetime. Clustering routing algorithm can address the problem efficiently. In this article, a grid-based reliable multi-hop routing approach for wireless sensor networks is proposed. In order to minimize and balance the energy consumption, our proposed protocol, grid-based reliable multi-hop routing protocol, optimizes the cluster head election process by combining individual ability which consists of node’s residual energy and node’s location, and local cognition which can balance energy consumption among clusters via a consultative mechanism based on cluster head’s lifetime expectancy, while considering data forwarding delay and reliable transmission of data. Simulation results show that grid-based reliable multi-hop routing protocol has improved stability period as compared to other protocols. Meanwhile, grid-based reliable multi-hop routing protocol has better performance in energy efficiency, data forwarding delay, and reliable transmission of data.

Underwater wireless sensor networks are energy resource constrained due to the scarce battery capacity. Energy efficient routing protocol is highly demanded to be developed for such networks. It is indeed a challenging task to design routing protocol that can achieve energy efficiency due to the dynamic and harsh underwater environment. A dynamic cluster based routing protocol coupled with sink mobility support (DCMMS) is proposed. Two schemes are combined together in the protocol. One is the formation of  clusters and two is the mobile sink management. The cluster formation includes cluster head election process and member           association process. Each cluster member sends the sensed data to the cluster head. Multiple mobile sinks are deployed to gather data directly from cluster heads. Finally, mobile sinks send the collected data after proper aggregation to the static sinks located at the surface. Thus, sink mobility and the dynamic clustering technique together help to balance the load among the nodes thereby       minimizing energy consumption to a significant extent and extending the network life span. Analytical simulations are extensively carried out to attest how the proposed protocol (DCMMS) achieves better performance with minimum energy consumption, less end to end delay and higher packet delivery ratio than its counterpart existing protocol (AA-RP).

In wireless sensor networks, clustering class routing protocol is an important protocol type. Different clustering methods, and cluster head selection method directly affects the energy consumption of the entire network communication. This paper studies the effect of different partition methods of the network energy consumption, and to study the partitioning methods under the conditions of uneven distribution of nodes. We believe that energy efficiency clustering method should adapt the distributed of sensor nodes in order to improve energy efficiency. And according to the partition method we propose a low-power adaptive clustering routing protocol based on node distribution to partition. The protocol can effectively extend the lifetime of a wireless sensor network. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol can effectively prolong the network lifetime.

Energy consumption is an open issue in research field of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) protocol is the most additional routing protocol in WSNs. In LEACH, Cluster Head (CH) is selected randomly, not considering any parameter such as node energy, distance, which causes shortening its lifetime while energy consumption is unbalanced in WSNs. In this paper, it proposes a new LEACH-based protocol, energy consumption balance LEACH protocol. Firstly, all nodes are grouped based on their locations, and a CH is elected in every group, which ensures CHs even distribution in the network area. And an important factor selecting CHs, node energy is considered, which further energy consumption in WSNs. The results of simulation show that ECB-LEACH can increase energy efficiency and prolong the network lifetime.
