Recent research in wireless sensor networks have shown in most of the WSN applications node positions are often known in priori, to be able to effectively assimilate data from the WSN deployment. Also expected lifetime of the network, ie. for how long the deployment should work, is often an important specification for a particular deployment. In this paper we proposed two novel protocols, we call, Location and expected Lifetime Biased Clustering (LeLBC) and a modification of it, with fully localized intra cluster chaining (LeLBC-ICC). Both the protocols utilize the location information and network lifetime requirement as the knowledge for scheduling cluster head selection expeditiously. Experiment results have shown that LeLBC outperforms widely quoted non deterministic cluster based protocol LEACH, while LeLBC-ICC gives comparable results with the near optimal solution PEGASIS. Both the protocols use only localized information and maximum numbers of nodes remain alive during entire lifetime of the network.
