Q-NHEED: A Quad-based Hierarchical Routing Protocol in Wireless Sensor Networks

Naphat Keawpibal, Noppamas Pukkhem

Abstract


Hierarchical-based routing protocols play an essential role in both supporting the large scale of networks and decreasing the energy consumption for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The design of routing protocols must take in account the energy consumption in order to prolong a lifetime of the networks. In this paper, an improved hierarchical routing protocol with multi-hop fashion based on NHEED protocol, named Q-NHEED, is proposed. The aim of the proposed protocol is to extend the network lifetime and provide an efficiency of energy usage by selecting four representative cluster heads for aggregating data and transmitting it to the base station. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol outperforms the traditional HEED and NHEED protocols in points of view a network lifetime and residual energy in each round.
