Abstract

Due to the limitation of power and memory size for WSN (wireless sensor networks), the routing protocol of wireless sensor networks must maintain small routing information and reduce the power consumption as much as possible. LEACH (low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy) protocol and PEGASIS (power-efficient gathering in sensor information systems) protocol are analyzed firstly in this paper. Use for reference of the ideas used in both of the two protocols of reducing power dissipation, a three-layered routing protocol for WSN based on LEACH (TL-LEACH) is given. Then, this improved LEACH protocol is simulated and the simulation results show that TL-LEACH protocol is with greatly improved WSN lifetime than LEACH protocol.
