Cluster based self-organization management protocols for wireless sensor networks

Abstract

This study proposes a scheme for self-organization management protocols of higher-level nodes to contest member nodes with multi-hop form hierarchical clusters, introduce the "20/80 rule" for determining the ratio of headers to member nodes, and develop a new cluster-based routing protocol that integrates the inter-cluster on-demand routing and the intra-cluster table-driven routing applied in the sensor networks for further consumer applications.
