In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), due to the limited battery power of the sensor nodes, the communication
energy consumption is the main factor to affect the lifetime of the networks. A reasonable design
of the communication protocol can effectively reduce the energy consumption of the network system. Based on
low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH), an improved LEACH protocol in WSNs is proposed. In order
to optimize the cluster head (CH) election in the cluster setup phase, the improved LEACH takes into account a
number of factors, including energy consumption of communication between nodes, remaining energy of the nodes,
and the distance between nodes and base station (BS). In the steady phase, one-hop routing and multiple-hop
routing are combined to transmit data between CHs to improve energy efficiency. The forward CH is selected as
relay node according to the values of path cost. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm performs
better in balancing network energy consumption, and it can effectively improve the data transmission efficiency
and prolong the network lifetime, as compared with LEACH, LEACH-C (LEACH-centralized) and NDAPSO-C
(an adaptive clustering protocol based on improved particle swarm optimization) algorithms.
