  • Abstract
    This paper, based on the existing LEACH routing algorithm, proposes a novel adaptive zone-crossed and virtual node for multi-hop routing algorithm for large-scale wireless sensor networks. At first, we introduce the concepts of “zone” and “virtual node”. On this basis, an equilibrium energy routing algorithm is proposed. The purpose is to optimize multi-hop routing by shortening distance. Our simulation experiment demonstrates that, compared to the LEACH protocol, this new solution could reduce the energy consumption of cluster heads significantly, prolong the lifetime of networks and distribute dead nodes more uniformly.
