Static chain-cluster routing algorithm based on transmitting coordinate for wireless sensor network

A static chain-cluster routing protocol,SCTC,based on transmitting coordinate for wireless sensor network is proposed.Without location information of nodes,the protocol utilizes double base station to make networks into static clusters to reduce energy dissipation in dynamic clustering.It links the in-cluster nodes into a chain to decrease energy dissipation in in-cluster communication.The protocol reduces time delay by realizing parallel communication among the nodes in every cluster.It balances the energy consumption among the sensors in the network by rotating the collective layer.Simulation results show that SCTC can not only achieve reduction in energy dissipation and latency,but also can make the energy of the network burn evenly and thus improve the energy efficiency and lifetime of the networks.
