Stable Election Protocol for Three Dimensional Clustered Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Network
Authors: , ,
Abstract: Stable Election Protocol (SEP) is one of the first protocol which introduce the heterogeneous phenomena in the wireless sensor network. It’s based on clustering strategy in the goal to optimize the lifetime of the network. However, the authors are considered that the deployment of nodes is done in Two-Dimensional (2D) environment within reason to simplify the calculation analysis. Unfortunately, this approximation influence greatly in the formation of the clusters as it was based on the distance between nodes. Thus, it decreases the performance of the network as the lifetime and throughput parameters. In this paper, we demonstrate that the Three-Dimensional (3D) architecture in SEP protocol is closer to reality than the 2D distribution.
