Abstract
Balanced utilization of energy of wireless sensor nodes is a challenge while designing wireless sensor network (WSN). This energy of sensor node is a limited resource and measure for the lifespan of WSN. Communication process consumes most of the energy of sensor node hence; energy of sensor node becomes a major design issue for WSN. Clustering is preferred while designing routing protocols for WSN for its many to one traffic pattern. In our minimum distance based routing protocol for lifetime improvement in WSN (MDBRP) clusters are formed once in a lifetime and their heads are selected rotationally based on minimum communication distance between nodes and their next hop. MDBRP considers minimum energy consumption which aims to increase the overall lifespan of WSN.
