Authors: Brahim Elbhiri and Saadane Rachid and Driss Aboutajdine
Abstract: Many new protocols are specifically designed for wireless sensor networks, where the objectives is to save energy and extend the lifetime of the network. The clustering Algorithm is a kind of key technique which is largely used to answer these purposes. In this paper, we present and evaluate a Stochastic Developed Distributed Energy-Efficient Clustering (SDEEC) scheme for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. This protocol is based on dividing the network into dynamic clusters. The cluster’s nodes communicate with an elected node called cluster head, and then the cluster heads communicate the information to the base station. SDEEC introduce a dynamic method where the cluster head election probability is more efficient. Moreover, It introduce a stochastic scheme detection to prolong the network lifetime. Simulation results show that our protocol performs better than the Stable Election Protocol (SEP) and than the Distributed Energy-Efficient Clustering (DEEC) in terms of network lifetime. In the proposed protocol the first node death occurs over 80% times longer than the first node death in DEEC protocol and by about 110% than SEP.
