Abstract:
Clustering schemes improve energy efficiency of
wireless sensor networks. The inclusion of mobility as
a new criterion for the cluster creation and
maintenance adds new challenges for these clustering
schemes. Cluster formation and cluster head selection
is done on a stochastic basis for most of the
algorithms. In this paper we introduce a cluster
formation and routing algorithm based on a mobility
factor. The proposed algorithm is compared with
LEACH-M protocol based on metrics viz. number of
cluster head transitions, average residual energy,
number of alive nodes and number of messages lost
