Abstract
Energy efficiency is a critical factor for operation of a wireless sensor network. In general, wireless sensor networks perform clustering and routing using localized neighbor information and simple rules only. In this paper, we propose an energy efficient clustering and routing method for wireless sensor networks by exploiting energy state information of neighbor sensor nodes for selection of cluster heads. We compared the performance of the proposed method with that of a well known clustering and routing protocol. Our computational experiments demonstrate that the lifetime and distribution of energy consumptions of the proposed method are better than those of the compared method.
