Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) performs energy extensive tasks and it is essential to rotate sensor nodes frequently so that Cluster Head selections can be made efficiently. In this paper, we aim to improve the lifetime of sensor network by using LEACH based protocols and efficiently utilizing the limited energy available in these sensor nodes. In sensor network, the amount of data delivered at the base station is not important but it is the quality of the data which is of utmost importance. Our proposed approach significantly improves the life time and quality of data being delivered at the base station in sensor network. We evaluate our proposed approach using different sets of node energy levels and in each case our approach shows significant improvement over existing cluster-based hierarchical routing protocols. We evaluate our scheme in terms of energy consumption, life time and quality of data delivered at the base station. © 2013 IEEE.
