Power Balanced Efficient Clustering Algorithm for WSN

Wireless Sensor Network is having large number of sensors that sense the surrounding area. Sensing coverage of each nodes are limited that depends on their hardware designing. There is a Base Station (BS) that collects all the packets from sensors and then further processing is done on the collected that are used by the authentic users for taking decision. These information are stored in repository that may be used in future for business models too. Generally these sensors nodes are deployed in remote areas that are not easily reachable so energy is one of the main problem since batteries are not going to be frequently changed once they are deployed. There are lots of proposed work given by many authors and researchers for prolonging the WSNs lifetime. Some of the popular algorithms are LEACH, LEACH-C, HEED etc. Clustering is one of the strategy in which clusters are formed and there is a Cluster Head (CH) in each cluster and the other members nodes transmit data to their respective CHs. In our proposed algorithm we have consider four factors for the selection of CHs.
