Abstract

Cluster based routing protocols have a vital role in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) owing to efficient energy exhaustion of constrained power sensor node that is the main challenge in WSN. Cluster heads (CHs) distribution has great impact on upgrading the profit of energy and improving the network life timein Cluster-Based Routing Protocols (CBRP). Irregular CHs allocation yields unbalanced load on CHs and coverage hole.Therefore, the network performance is impaired.On the basis of importance of node location and its residual energy on the CH selection, Sink Controlled Uniform Cluster Head Distribution routing protocol for wireless sensor network (SCUCD)is proposed in this paper. The advantage ofthis proposed protocol is thatCHsareregularly allocated in the sensing field. Moreover, there is multi hop communication mechanism between CHs in the proposed protocol. MATLAB simulator is utilized to evaluate this protocol. Simulation results showedthat SCUCD achieves maximum network lifetime, residual energy consumption of sensor node and throughput in comparison with other protocols such as LEACH, MH-LEACH
