Abstract

The aim of this work is to develop a routing protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSN) applications taking into account constraints such as network lifetime and energy consumption. We propose a robust hierarchical routing protocol using a dynamic clustering mechanism (HRP-DCM) which consists to build clusters wherein coordinators nodes with extra privileges called Cluster-Head (CH) are able to create and manipulate messages using TDMA schedule and aggregate data according to CDMA method. The network reconfiguration is carried out dynamically based on some threshold value which is associated to the number of nodes belonging to a biggest cluster. To test the effectiveness of the proposed approach, some comparative studies with other well known clustering algorithms have been conducted.
