摘要:The wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is one of the booming field of research in recent era of scientific world. A WSN consists of sensors which are distributed spatially to monitor physical or environmental conditions and to pass their data cooperatively through the network to Base Station (BS). The major fact that sensor nodes dies due to run out of energy quickly because of the small size of the sensor nodes has been a constraint and many energy efficient routing protocols have been developed for solve this problem and to preserve the lifetime of the network. To conserve energy in wireless sensor network we are proposing an Event Driven Hierarchical Cluster based Routing Protocol. In this whenever there is an occurrence of event in the sensor area, then this event information is passed through the selected cluster head which have the highest residual energy and shortest distance to the sink in each communication round of transmission. Simulation results show that routing of event data through different level of hierarchy prolongs the lifetime of the network compared to other clustering scheme and shows significant performance increase.
