Abstract

Energy consumption has been the major concern in the deployment of wireless sensor networks. It is a very critical issue that challenges the effective data transfer from source to sink nodes. In the present work, author proposes an algorithm that aimed to minimize the energy consumption during data transfer in a large scale wireless sensor network comprising of 10,000 sq.m. Deployment area populated with 1000 to 5000 nodes. The execution is divided into two parts, the first part selects the number of Cluster Heads (CHs) where, soft-cosine similarity index is used to reflect CH to CH coverage in the defined area and the second part is the responsible for the implementation of novel strategy for a better CH selection. In the process, novel feedback model was employed that estimates the threshold as the average of normalized scale for each node and path for a given time interval. To check the effectiveness, the performance of the designed architecture is evaluated after every 100 rounds in terms of Throughput, packet delivery ratio and energy consumption. Simulation results had shown that the proposed work outperformed the throughput of the existing work by 4.18 and 6.52% followed by PDR by 6.59 and 7.78% and energy consumption by 2.95 and 4.43%, when compared with two existing studies, respectively.
