Abstract

WSN is usually made up of a hefty amount of low priced, moderate power-driven multifunctional sensors, which are positioned in a target region. Basically, these nodes are small in magnitude however they are fortified with one or more sensors, microprocessors as well as radio transmitter and receiver. In innumerable applications, arrangement of sensors is carried out in an ad hoc manner without taking into account of cautious preplanning as well as engineering. As soon as the sensors are scattered, they must be talented to independently unify it selves into a wireless network. In specific, sensors are generally battery powered and should drive without presence for a moderately extended time period. In utmost circumstances, it is very strenuous and even impractical to revitalize the batteries of sensors. To protract the network existence, clustering is a crucial technique with more proficient the cluster leader selection likelihood. The sensors with unexpended energy and network average energy will have lot of possibilities to be the cluster heads, when contrasted with nodes that have minimal energy. This paper presents four-level Balanced Energy-Efficient Network Integrated Super Heterogeneous (FL-BEENISH) protocol and simulation result shows that the proposed method performs better than the DDEEC and EDDEEC protocol.
