Abstract
In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), cluster formation and cluster head selection are critical issues. They can drastically affect the network’s performance in different environments with different characteristics. In order to deal with this problem, we have proposed a fuzzy-based system for cluster-head selection and controlling sensor speed in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The proposed system is constructed by two Fuzzy Logic Controllers (FLC). We use four input linguistic parameters for evaluating lifetime of a sensor in FLC1. Then, we use the output of FLC1 and two other linguistic parameters as input parameters of FLC2 to control the probability of headcluster selection. By considering the moving speed of the sensor we are able to predict whether the node will leave or stay in the cluster. In this paper, we evaluate FLC1 and FLC2 by simulations and show that they have a good behavior.
