Abstract
Extending the lifetime of wireless sensor networks WSNs is a major concern in recent years. The main problem seems in the recent proposed approaches is that these use direct communication among nodes with the rotation of cluster heads CHs periodically to distribute energy consumption among various cluster heads CHs. Energy saving mechanisms based only on metrics related to nodes' residual power cannot be directly applied to find stable CHs. The reason is that a sensor node or a CH having more residual power is willing to accept all requests, because it has enough residual battery power, therefore, much traffic will be injected to that node. In that case, a sharp decay of node's backup battery power. In this research paper, a multi-criterion fuzzy logic intra-cluster and inter-cluster based multi-hop routing protocol is proposed. The simulation results confirm that our proposed approach is more efficient than state-of-the-art approaches.
