QoS Analysis of Clustering Technique in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract
Power management is an important issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) because wireless sensor nodes are usually battery powered, and an efficient use of the available battery power becomes an important concern specially for those applications where the system is expected to operate for long durations.. Clustering based approaches in Wireless Sensor Networks helps in identifying the summarized data by exploiting the feature of data redundancy in sensor networks and provides an effective method for prolonging lifetime of a WSN. In this paper we compared the effect of Clustering over without Clustering technique in WSN over AODV Routing Protocol. Also compared various parameters but main focus on comparing the Network Lifetime.
