Title
A Weighted Cluster Head Selection Algorithm for Energy Efficient Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract
The wireless sensor network's (WSNs) lifetime is mainly dependent on the RE of the sensor nodes (SeN). In recent years, energy minimization in a WSN has been a prominent research topic, and numerous solutions have been proposed. This research focuses on the energy minimization of the SeNs where firstly, K-medoid clustering algorithm is applied to create clusters. Second, a weighted cluster head selection technique is used to choose a cluster head (CH) by integrating three independent weights associated with an SeN: energy, distance from the centroid, and distance from the sink node (SN). According to the energy level and distance from the SN and cluster's centre, each node is assigned a constant weight. The simulation results are compared to existing methodologies, and the results show that the suggested network's lifetime enhances.
