Hybrid DEEC: Towards Efficient Energy Utilization in Wireless Sensor Networks

The clustering algorithm are considered as a kind of key technique used to reduce energy consumption. It can help in increasing the stability period and network life time. Routing protocol for efficient energy utilization should be designed for heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). We purpose Hybrid-DEEC (H-DEEC), a chain and cluster based (hybrid) distributed scheme for efficient energy utilization in WSNs. In H-DEEC,elected Cluster Heads (CHs) communicate the Base Station (BS) through beta elected nodes, by using multi-hopping. We logically divide the network into two parts, on the basis of the residual energy of nodes. The normal nodes with high initial and residual energy will behighlyprobable to be CHs than the nodes with lesser energy. To overcome the deficiencies of H-DEEC, we propose Multi-Edged Hybrid-DEEC (MH-DEEC). In MH-DEEC the criteria of chain construction is modified. Finally, the comparison in simulation results with other heterogeneous protocols show that, MH-DEEC and H-DEEC achieves longer stability time and network life time due to efficient energy utilization.
