摘要:One of the major issues is to reduce the energy consumption by the sensor nodes as energy is the major constraint. Wireless nodes typically operate with small batteries for which replacement, when required is very difficult and expensive. Thus, in order to increase the network lifetime, minimization of the energy consumption is a very important design consideration. Cooperative techniques need to be incorporated to avoid this problem. In the proposed technique,clusters are formed using DEAR approach, and selects cooperative nodes in a network using MIMO. Transmit power is reduced considerably through C-MIMO thus the overall performance is enhanced. Through the proposed technique,unnecessary transmissions by the non-cooperative nodes are avoided. The proposed scheme offers better performance in terms ofEnergy efficiency.
