SPIN with Cluster for Data Centric Wireless Sensor Networks

Routing Algorithms are driving the growth of the data transmission in wireless sensor networks. Contextually, many algorithms considered the data gathering and data aggregation. This paper uses the scenario of clustering and its impact over the SPIN protocol and also finds out the effect over the energy consumption in SPIN after uses of clustering. The proposed scheme is implemented using TCL/C++ programming language and evaluated using Ns2.34 simulator and compare with LEACH. Simulation shows proposed protocol exhibits significant performance gains over the LEACH for lifetime of network and guaranteed data transmission.
