Abstract

In recent years, the wireless sensor network (WSN) is employed a wide range of applications. But existing communication protocols for WSN ignore the characteristics of collected data and set routes only according to the mutual distance and residual energy of sensors. In this paper we propose a Data-Aware Clustering Hierarchy (DACH), which organizes the sensors based on both distance information and data distribution in the network Furthermore, we also present a multi-granularity query processing method based on DACH, which can estimate the query result more efficiently. Our empirical study shows that DACH has higher energy efficiency than Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH), and the multi-granularity query processing method based on DACH brings more accurate results than a random access system using same cost of energy.
