TY - JOUR AU - Nguyen, Tat-Bao-Thien PY - 2020/04/30 TI - An Optimal Cluter Head Parameter in Leach Protocol of Wireless Sensor Networks JF - Journal of Science and Technology: Issue on Information and Communications Technology; Vol 18 No 4.2 (2020): Volume 18, Number 4.2, 2020DO - 10.31130/ict-ud.2020.92 KW - N2 - In wireless sensor networks, LEACH is often used as an energy saving protocol and extends the network life. However, there are many parameters that affect the performance of the LEACH protocol, one of which is the number of cluster heads. This paper proposes a simple and efficient solution to determine the optimal number of cluster heads in the LEACH protocol. For the proposed solution, the system can achieve the optimal performance between the longest lifetime in the constraint as the largest amount of data transmitted in the network.    UR - http://ict.jst.udn.vn/index.php/jst/article/view/92
