Survey on WSN Network Lifetime Through Leach Clustering Schemes

Abstract

Sensor nodes deployed in wireless sensor networks (WSN) are resource constrained, battery operated and have a restricted energy resource. The significant number of wireless sensor network applications aim to extend the longevity of the network by using various strategies. Clustering algorithms were proven to be among the best efficient ways for increasing wireless sensor network reliability. In a wireless sensor network, clustering-based solutions control the network operations to manage the restricted energy in the optimal effective way to extend the network lifetime. Reviews in related subject could assist in gathering thorough and timely information about wireless sensor networks lifetime study through different clustering protocols. This research review study paper presents an extensive study of existing low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) homogeneous clustering procedures and analysis.
