Abstract

A novel Cluster Heads (CH) choosing algorithm based on both Minimal Spanning Tree and Maximum Energy resource on sensors, named MSTME, is provided for prolonging lifetime of wireless sensor networks. MSTME can satisfy three principles of optimal CHs: to have the most energy resource among sensors in local clusters, to group approximately the same number of closer sensors into clusters, and to distribute evenly in the networks in terms of location. Simulation shows the network lifetime in MSTME excels its counterparts in two-hop and multi-hop wireless sensor networks.
